Invincible

Anonymous & Albert Camus, adapted by the composer

In the midst of hate, I found there was within me, an invincible love. In the midst of tears, I found there was within me, an invincible smile. In the midst of chaos, I found there was within me, an invincible calm. I realized, through it all, that in the midst of winter, I found there was within me an invincible summer. Invincible calm, invincible smile- Invincible love. No matter how hard the world pushes against me, I know There's something stronger, something better, something there within me pushing back- An invincible summer. Invincible calm, invincible smile- Invincible love.
