HERE AND TODAY

Music and Lyrics by Todd Herzog © 2017 Todd Herzog/VoxArt Music (ASCAP). All rights reserved

 

Darkness cannot drive out the darkness

Only light can drive the darkness away

Hate cannot drive out the hatred

Only love can bring the dawning of the day

 

There’s a time when peace will be upon us

The time for which our prophets await

But the time to embrace one another

Is here and today, hey, hey

Here and today, hey, hey

 

We can’t turn our backs on on the work that lies before us

Though we may not live to see fulfillment day

We can’t wait for someone else to write the chorus

Only we can say the words we’re meant to say

 

There’s a time when peace will be upon us

The time for which our prophets await

But the time to embrace one another

Is here and today, hey, hey

Here and today, hey, hey

 

The blackest night is pierced by a single candle

And silence is erased by just one voice

So in this time of ignorance and anger

Let us come together and rejoice

 

There’s a time when peace will be upon us

The time for which our prophets await

But the time to embrace one another

Is here and today, hey, hey

Here and today, hey, hey
