#1: Believe In Yourself
Believe in yourself and in your dream
Though impossible things may seem
Someday, somehow you’ll get through
To the goal you have in view
Mountains fall and seas divide
Before the one who in his stride
Takes a hard road day by day
Sweeping obstacles away
Believe in yourself and in your plan
Say not – I cannot – but, I can
The prizes of life we fail to win
Because we doubt the power within
#2: Blessed Are They
Blessed are they who understand
My faltering step and shaking hand.
Blessed are they who know my ears today
Must strain to catch the things they say.
Blessed are they who seem to know
My eyes are dim, my mind is slow.
Blessed are they with cheery smile
Who stop to chat for a little while.
Blessed are they who make it known
I’m loved, respected and not alone.
#3: The World Is Mine
Today upon a bus I saw a lovely girl with golden hair;
I envied her… she seemed so gay… and wished I were as fair.
When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle;
She had one foot and wore a crutch, but as she passed a smile.
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I have two feet… the world is mine.
And then I stopped to buy some sweets.
The lad who served them had such charm, I talked with him.
He said to me: “It’s nice to talk to folks like you.
You see,” he said, “I’m blind.”
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I have two eyes… the world is mine.
Then walking down the street, I saw a child with eyes of blue.
He stood and watched the others play;
It seemed he knew not what to do.
I stopped for a moment,
then I said, “Why don’t you join the others, dear?”
He looked ahead without a word,
and then I knew he could not hear.
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I have two ears… and the world is mine.
With feet to take me where I’d go.
With eyes to see the sunset’s glow.
With ears to hear what I would know.
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I’m blessed indeed…The world is mine.
#4: You’ll Find When You Smile
You’ll find when you smile
Your day will be brighter
And all of your burdens
Will seem so much lighter.
For each time you smile
You will find it is true
Somebody, somewhere will
Smile back at you.
And nothing on earth
Can make life more worthwhile
Than the sunshine and warmth
Of a beautiful smile.
