Tomorrow will be bright and joyful
My father said
As he wiped my childhood tears away.
The darkness will drift away
Taking terrors of the night
Giving birth to a resplendent day.
Tomorrow will be full of promise
And smiling, he took my hand
And told me of a Jewish man
Who walked on water and raised the dead.
