Drowned by Despair, Saved by Hope
Composed by:
Angelo Saniel Gomos
On a cold and
dark December night,
When people were
asleep and humbly in peace,
No trouble was
found in sight,
While the wind
blew its freezing breeze.
Then all of a
sudden, rain came pouring,
Stronger by the
second, while the wind started howling.
The trees were
uprooted and the houses destroyed,
As the river
waters started raging and flooding.
The people were
awakened in fright and fear,
Praying for
God’s almighty mercy for all to hear.
The disastrous
calamity came strikingly unexpected,
Leaving numerous
injured and multiple dead.
The people cried
their wails of agony,
Hopeless and
destroyed, they still kept their morality.
Clinging to God
with their faith and loyalty,
In order for
them to find light in this major adversity.
The almighty God
never fails to listen,
For His love to
the faithful always abides.
With ultimate
kindness and compassionate mercy,
He sends His
omnipotent hand to those who are weary.
In this
difficult time, the people learned compassion,
With love for
each other and sacrificial cooperation.
Drowned by
despair yet saved by hope,
The people
gained courage and pious devotion.
