We will count the losses
After the storm
We will weep for fallen
On turbulent seas
We will hold those that grieve
The ones that mourn
And build our future
By slow degrees
We will pray for morning
A coppery sun
A cascade of colour
To obliterate grey
We will look in wonder
At all we’ve begun
And honour the losses
That paved the way
We will count the losses
After the storm
And herald the heroes
The world we have born
