Lift up your eyes upon This day breaking for you Give birth again To the dream Women, children, men Take it into the palms of your hands Mold it into the shape of your most Private need, sculpt it into The image of your most public self Lift up your hearts Each new hour holds new chances For new beginnings Do not be wedded forever To fear, yoked eternally To brutishness The horizon leans forward Offering you space to place New steps of change
