Believe
I can't help but believe,
as we enter this
"Season of Light"
In all things good and glorious,
in all things beautiful and bright
I believe in the human spirit's,
power to soar above the fray
I believe it's in our nature,
to create a better day
The challenges all around us
are but tests of who we are
They're gifts that guide us onward to reach that distant star
We're given the gift of dreaming
to expand our mind beyond
To show us what we can be,
if faith in ourselves is our bond
It's in this time of believing
we're reminded once again,
Of the miracles all around us,
the wonders that never end
I believe in the gift of renewal,
in the promise this season brings
The love we share and the
joy in the air
are the mightiest of things
Take heart in the stars that light the sky and twinkle in the night
Never loose that awe that fills you up, at the wonder of that sight
If ever you need a reminder,
should your faith ever waiver
or leave
Just lift your gaze to the heavens,
take a breath, close your eyes
and believe....
