Even though it's a dark outside.
I sing to the light that I see out the door, and it's dark, dark inside.
I sing for the challenges this path has in store, and it's dark, dark inside.
Oh, the darkness takes courage; the darkness takes time.
Living in the darkness brings a different state of mind.
The darkness knows healing; the darkness knows change,
Oh, Mother darkness, I return to you again.
And according to my googlings, the song is by a UU Minister, Mary Grigolia, and there are two more verses. I like the third:
I sing to the curtain surrounding my fear, and it's dark, dark inside.
I'm breathing the grief I've been holding for years, and it's dark, dark inside.
Oh the darkness takes courage; the darkness takes time.
Living in the darkness brings a different state of mind.
The darkness knows healing; the darkness knows change.
Oh, Mother darkness, I return to you again.
