/*
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song
of the lark
Walk on, through the wind
Walk on, through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed
and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
YNWA
