Believe In Oneself
Faith within gives hope
to one’s soul
Giving strength to a
weakened heart
The spirit conquers a
lost goal
Teaches the mind a
youthful art
Take one’s struggles
cast them aside
Worry none about those
who play
Care for yourself with
special pride
Become strong -
emotions won’t stray
The light shines on you
with a glow
Knowing your strength
is stronger now
Because you are
learning how to grow
Come now take a
fabulous bow
Come now take a
fabulous bow
Because you are
learning how to grow
knowing your strength
is stronger now
The light shines on you
with a glow
Become strong -
emotions won’t stray
Care for yourself with
special pride
Worry none about those
who play
Take one’s struggles
cast them aside
Teaches the mind a
youthful art
The spirit conquers a
lost goal
Giving strength to a
weakened heart
Faith within gives hope
to one’s soul
