Prevailed
Over words
And ultimately
Actions that sealed
Protracted showdown
Enroute the heralded hill
Redemption’s anthem hoisted
In universal fashion timelessly displayed
Immortality in rescue zeal toward the mortals

Seeking to secure the earth in ultimate glorious submerge
Resilient resolve distinctly displayed in statement
Because hope
