about

Inspired by the writings of Emerson, Thoreau, and John Muir, and a year spent living in the desert working in wilderness therapy.

lyrics

Be calm, be brave, be bold
We'll make it through the storm

Though the road ahead feels so long
We'll make it there, I swear, if we carry on through dawn

Don't count the hours
Just enjoy the views
Don't neglect the flowers
Don't forget to muse

And our little fire will keep us warm
Lost out here a thousand miles from home

Be calm, be brave, be bold
We'll make it through the storm

Though the storm above feels so strong
We'll make it through, I swear, if we hang on 'til the dawn
Every stubborn squall will have its end
Through anything I'll be your friend
A time will come when the sun returns
We'll face it wiser with all we have learned

Deafening thunder roars above
Hailstones pound the ground
Be calm, be brave, be bold my love
Peace will be found

If we tend the light, we'll make it through the night
If we tend the light, we'll make it through the night
