Courage

Who among us, brothers and sisters, will stand when called to fight? 

Who will rise with purpose, in darkness finding light?

Who among you, sons, will hold your lover's hand through storm?

Who, my daughters, will stand for truth when others just conform?

Which of you, neighbors, will set aside your pride and strife?

Which will reach across divides to build a better life?

Which father lifts his child and guides with steady hand?

What mother faces tyrants with courage to withstand? 

Which wife stays true when trials test the bonds of love?

Which husband seeks forgiveness, with grace from above?

Who keeps their courage burning when fear grips tight within?

Who stands their ground unflinching when hope wears thin?

And who, dear children, bears the strength when burdens weigh?

Who presses forward bravely when night consumes the day?

This is your call to action, a summons clear and true.

Take up your courage boldly, it's what you're meant to do.

All you who suffer wounds that leave your spirit sore,

This is your path to healing, your light forevermore.

Lift high your heads with dignity, no room for shame remains.

Live every moment knowing that victory sustains.

Who among us, brothers and sisters, has courage to withstand?

Let us stand together, united, hand in hand.
