Trench Prayer

Could there be this much evil
In one night so long
Could there be enough love
To combat this
Night stretching on

I will dig my trench in hope
It won't be my grave
My spirit is more
Than my flesh is brave

Tonight
I will light my candle
Burn it bright in the endless night
I can handle
I can
Burn it bright in the endless night

Come join me brothers, sisters
Bring your children too
We will stand together
Lord and saviour
Chosen few

If this is the beginning
Of the end of time
How much longer
Have we got
To sing this rhyme

Tonight
I will light my candle
Burn it bright in the endless night
I can handle
I can
Burn it bright in the endless night
