If you dare to believe
to follow your star...

If you seek out your purpose
to find out who you are...

If you call on your courage
to find hope in your heart...

If you challenge your talent
to fulfill its part...

If love for your neighbor
helps to shape who you are...

If you still can have faith
when you've traveled so far...

If troubles and setbacks
cannot stand in your way...

If you find the resolve
to live life every day...

Then what you will find
at the end of the road...

Is strength in your heart
and peace in your soul.
