Brighter Skies (Jackson's Song)
Brighter Skies
Music and Lyrics by Don Weismantel
Precious light of life
Struggling just to breathe
Sometimes this world can be so cruel
So full of pain and grief
Uncertain soul full of innocence
Fighting for another day
How can this ever be justified
When justice seems so far away
Fledgling child of all that's right
Surviving through another night
A womb of tubes and wires is where you lay
But you get stronger everyday
Mother and father love you much
Only craving your tender touch
Harvesting hope from prayers that were sewn
You're coming home
You're coming home
The storm is over
The clouds have passed
All that's left are
Brighter skies
Brighter skies
The darkness faded
It couldn't last
All that's left are
Brighter skies
Brighter skies
In mother's arms where you should be
The past fast becomes just a memory
No longer living in a cyclone of fear
The skies above are blue and clear
The future is yours so learn to fly
The heavens above are so vast and wide
It's a big world but you'll never be alone
You're always home
You're always home
The storm is over
The clouds have passed
All that's left are
Brighter skies
Brighter skies
The darkness faded
It couldn't last
All that's left are
Brighter skies
Brighter skies
The storm is over
The clouds have passed
All that's left are
Brighter skies
Brighter skies
The darkness faded
It couldn't last
All that's left are
Brighter skies
Brighter skies
