Is there no sign of light as we stand in the darkness?
Watching the sun rise ,,]
Is there no sign of life as we gaze at the waters?
Into the strangers eyes ,,]
And who are we to criticize or
scorn the things that they do? ,,]
For we shall seek and we shall find
monia Avenue
If we call for the proof and we question the answers
Only the doubt will grow ,,]
Are we blind to the truth or a sign to believe in?
Only the wise will know ,,]
And word by word they handed down
the light that shines today ,,]
And those who came at first to scoff,
Remained behind to pray
Yes those who came at first to scoff,
remained behind to pray
When you can't hear the rhyme and you can't see the reason
Why should the hope remain? ,,]
For a man will be tired and his soul will grow weary
Living his life in vain ,,]
And who are we to justify
the right in all we do? ,,]
Until we seek until we find
monia Avenue
Through all the doubt
somehow they knew
And stone by stone they built it high
Until the sun broke through
ray of hope, shining light
monia Avenue
