Out of the darkness, out of the deepest night
Waiting to greet us, just like the dawn
There is a power each of us keeps inside
Love is a comfort to carry us on
Chorus:
And it’s onward and upward
I do believe we’ll go
Onward and upward, my friends
Yes it’s onward and upward
From each we receive
The strength and the courage
To face it again
Sometimes my troubles seem
to surround me
To keep me from seeing the clear light of day
But the biggest of bubbles floating around me
Are merely illusions your love sweeps away
Chorus:
Down on the prairies, up
on the mountain side
Cold winds a blowin’ out on the sea
If ever your dreamings are frozen on wings of ice
You must remember to count on me
Chorus:
