They Shall Not Rob Me of Hope I believe that behind the mist the sun waits. I believe that beyond the dark night it is raining stars. I believe in secret volcanos and the world below. I believe that this lost ship will reach port. They will not rob me of hope, it shall not be broken, it shall not be broken, it shall not be broken; my voice is filled to overflowing with the desire to sing, the desire to sing. I believe in reason, and not force of arms; I believe in our nobility, created in the image of God, and with free will reaching for the skies. They will not rob me of hope, it shall not be broken, it shall not be broken. WOJCIKS FUNERAL CHAPEL & CREMATORIUM 897 - 4665
