Deep in the Darkest Night
VAN HELSING
Now that we’ve found where the enemy’s lurking
Nothing can stand in our way

ARTHUR
Since we are facing the forces of darkness
We must be the cold light of day

QUINCEY
We are the lanterns that burn in the lighthouse

ARTHUR
The candles in the crypt

SEWARD
We are the light

ALL
Let there be light

VAN HELSING
This is a war and we must be the victors

ARTHUR
There’s too much too lose if we fail
SEWARD
We’ll cross the seas like a band of crusaders
Searching for some precious grail

QUINCEY
We are the embers that glow in the winter
The diamonds in the mine

ARTHUR
Let’s take our torches
And pray God will show us a sign

ALL
Deep in the darkest night
When there’s no spark of hope
We must be points of light
Piercing the darkness
Bright as the dazzling stars
In an indifferent sky
And in our cruelest hour when hope is gone
We’ll raise our heads
And we’ll journey on

ARTHUR
When the great battle commences
Surely the light will prevail
We will break down his defenses
He will fall and the sun will rise
ALL
Deep in the darkest night
When there’s no spark of hope
We must be points of light
Piercing the darkness
Bright as the dazzling stars
In an indifferent sky and in our cruelest hour
When hope is gone
We’ll raise our heads
And we’ll journey on
