"When the night comes, the land is dark and the moon is the only light... we won't be afraid... stand by me."
These words, or words like them could come from various religious texts. Indeed, this is a central theme in human existence. We aren't always sure, not always ready to respond in any compehensive manner when confronted with the unknown, the dark, the fearsome. And like the song, spirtual texts abound, encouraging that we not be afraid...stand by me.
And often we do just that. The moon is the only light we see before the dawn.
Stand By Me
