Dear Athena

Lyrics
So I put pen to paper
and I just can’t find the words
To describe the heart and mind
of this young and silly girl.
Oh dear Athena,
I need your help,
I can’t find my light
So lost and scared,
I look to your wise bird
to guide me right.
So I look out at this bitter wide world
and ask for strength and grace
to enter in the fight with shovel and spade
through this war-torn landscape
Oh dear Athena
Guard me at night
with your aegis and sword
Let go my grip so tight
when life asks me more
than I think I can afford.
Oh Athena
Tell me we’ll win some day
Oh Athena
Stay close to me I pray
Oh Athena
Though I don’t know what’s in store
Oh Athena
Trusting in you
Sincerely yours
