Sample Lyrics: Chorus:
Every day when I awake,
There’ll be choices I must make,
‘Cause once my eyes are open, I will see.
So whether I give or I just take,
The choice is mine for goodness sake!
There are other people in this world and not just me. Verse 5
Let’s all make the most of life,
There’s so much to be explored.
Every day’s a special gift,
To be opened, not ignored.
Give our thanks for everyone,
Make a difference every day;
Try to be the best we can,
Share the things that come our way. Outro:
Now my eyes are open I can see.
