Alight Ablaze Aflame

The fawn who lost the herd

Running lone

Through the thicket on fire

Stouthearted in absconding

For sounding desolation no more

*In scripture, the deer can symbolize a piety in devotion to God who takes care of His children: men and women (“He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights.” Psalms 18:33).  However, it is through the fires of adversity that test our faith and these trials refer to persecution.   A mournful instrumental track, with noise in the background, captures the feeling of being lost and alone yet continuing to persevere.
