This I Believe

I believe in boys and girls

who grow up and change the world –

listening to the heavenly breeze,

waiting to learn God’s mysteries,

deciding which path in life to choose –

walking with God, you cannot lose.

Whether you are young or old,

the story of God can always be told;

the story of God is your story, too –

the next chapter is up to you.

I believe that God is all.

I believe he’ll never fall.

I believe he shines on Earth.

He will always bring good birth.
