rise, because he does 
to greet your shining countenance 

how great our god! a single guarantee: 
light in the morning, warm life to come

a promise to our babies 
unwavering even as we wane:
wax son
wax light
wax promise of god!

almighty is tomorrow's promise
almighty chance divine:
to build again what breaks today 
forgiveness, inherence, time
