Hold on with faith to those who choose you,
accepting all your faults sincerely,
confidence brings certainty
and with it understanding;
when you believe.
Accept all joy that comes to find you,
grasping perfect moments firmly,
presence grants contentment
and peace of mind;
when you believe.
Trust in the magic that surrounds you,
defying logic and all reason,
dreams become reality
and life extraordinary;
when you believe.
