From the Leonard Cohen song “Anthem,” 1992. 

LYRICS
Forget your perfect offering 
(Forget your perfect offering)
There is a crack in everything
(There is a crack in everything)
Just ring the bells that still can ring
(Just ring the bells that still can ring)
That’s how (that’s how)
The light (the light)
Gets in (That’s how the light gets in)

Light Gets In

Sunrise is building an army of young people to stop climate change and create millions of good jobs in the process. We call ourselves Sunrise because we know this dark hour in America, when fossil fuel executives and climate deniers run our government, cannot last. The sun will rise again.
We have a 4-year plan to make climate action an urgent priority in every corner of the country, expose the fossil fuel executives who have purchased politicians and blocked progress, and lift up champions who will work for the people at every level of government.

Light Gets In
