Song information
This one's a 'tract for the times,' as it were.

Heartfelt thanks to Joyce Dorrance for
her lovely and powerful BGVs!

Oh, and 'Scylla and Charybdis'? Google it!

:-)

Stay safe and be well my friends!

Lyrics
IN TIMES LIKE THESE

I
In times like these
when everything 'round us is shaken
and the things we were so sure of
seem to evaporate

II
When the only choice before us
is 'tween the lesser of two evils
Between the Scylla and Charybdis
we're forced to navigate

CHORUS:
In times like these
When push comes to shove
Don't despair
Trust in your Creator
and hold tight to those you love

III
When the economy's collapsing
and our leadership is failing
and every sign does indicate
it's gonna be rough sailing

IV
When everyone around you 
seems lost in the confusion
and common sense has been replaced
by highly toxic illusion

CHORUS:
In times like these
When push comes to shove
Don't despair
Trust in your Creator
and hold tight to those you love

(Lead Soloing)

CHORUS:
In times like these
When push comes to shove
Don't despair
Trust in your Creator
and hold tight to those you love

V
As the world twists and convulses
and so many lose their bearings
and the puppet master Globalists
at everyone's flesh are tearing

VI
Please remember friend
when you're feeling like a pawn
They say it's always darkest
right before the dawn

CHORUS:
In times like these
When push comes to shove
Don't despair
Trust in your Creator
and hold tight to those you love

LOVE

Trust in your Creator 
and hold tight to those you love

Aside from your apparent professionalism, one of the other reasons I love working with your music is because it has structure and melody and clarity.. Thank you for asking me and Joyce II in on anotheer hit from you. Thank you to all the listeners as well.. 'In times like these' music is major therapy

As for the "dawn," who knows?
Hope springs eternal in my own heart.
All in the good Lord's hands...

@Wyndsok Oddly enough working on the song, certain lyrics lines really hit home for  me during a personally turbulent time as well.. having faith.. oh the sunglasses were the result of shading my eyes from month's aftermath of the fires in LA.. and a photographer friend added a little magic to the original photo. Next time we collab, maybe Joyce III will join in

High energy! I like this.
It's a nice touch to have Joyce's vocals in the chorus.
Yes times like these are very uncertain. Actually quite frighetning.
