IT’S UP TO YOU:
If you think you’re a winner, you’ll win,
If you dare to step out, you’ll succeed.
Believe in your heart, have a purpose to start,
Aim to help others in need.
Thoughts of faith must replace every doubt,
Words of courage and you cannot fail.
If you stumble and fall, rise and stand ten feet tall,
You determine the course that you sail!
