(©Brooks Williams 1992)

All that is gold does not glitter
All who wander are not lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not touched by frost

From the ashes a fire shall be awoken
A light from these shadows shall spring

Those who bring peace shall not grow weary
Though the road be long they will find rest
Often the silence speaks the loudest
The unclenched fist is still the best

From the ashes a fire shall be awoken
A light from these shadows shall spring

Those who seek truth shall not be sorry
Those who hope shall find new sight
Happy are those who show mercy
A candle shines the brightest light

From the ashes a fire shall be awoken
A light from these shadows shall spring

All that is gold does not glitter
All who wander are not lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not touched by frost

All that is gold does not glitter
All who wander are not lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not touched by frost
