LYRICS

Welcome to the song we have built—
the song we have lived in, the song that lives in us.

The searching, the lost and found, we all have 
passed through: leaving our marks on these walls 
and climbing our staircase—it does not end.
In harmony’s name our every voice ascends.

There is dark, but we never needed a light. 

There is cold, but we never needed a fire. 
There is hope, still burning wild and bright— 

this song our light, our fire, our selves.

They too are searching, have been lost and found: 

our sounds that travel outward in all weather. 
Steeped in moon or sun, winds weak or strong, 

they will return to us who keep raising this song.

There is dark, but we never needed a light; 

there is cold, but we never needed a fire—

for the searching, the lost and found,
we have built this light, this fire, this song:

you need only listen, and it will welcome you.
