In our darkest hour, in my deepest despair,
Will you still care? Will you be there?
In my trials and my tribulations,
Through our doubts and frustrations,

And my anguish and my pain,
Through my joy and my sorrow,
In the promise of another tomorrow,
I'll never let you part,
For you're always in my heart. — Michael Jackson

This good spirit was from God, and to him I offer thanksgiving and praise. — Frederick Douglass
