As a token against the darkness,
This miracle now stands,
Light and granite, skin and bones,
Hewed by human hands.
A guardian for our city,
An angel looming near,
Our beacon against all evil,
So we may known no fear.

With gentle eyes, behold our souls,
Hold us in thine arms,
Soothe away our frightful thoughts,
Sheild us from the harms.
Though darkness falls, we shall not cry,
But look upon your face,
Though danger lurks, we will not bleed,
Healed by trusting grace.

Please watch us now,
Oh holy light, As dawns again,
The endless night.
