Dancing in the Mourning

Is a life only obedient in joy worth anything?

How much you love those who love you,

How much more you love those who wrestle with you!

I have spent days in the light

When laughter was easy and your love sweet

Now I have spent days in darkness

In these days I have learned to dance, though my vision is blurred

In these days I have learned to sing, though my heart beats out of time

I have a new song,

A song of faithfulness.
