Oh dear Teddy, dear Teddy. . . .
In 1963, I wept in confusion,
In 1968, I sobbed in pain,
In 2009, I wipe the tears away and defiantly declare: The hope shall live on!
***
And He will raise you up on eagle’s wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His Hand.
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His Hand.
