I rise each day with one desire,

To live a life of love, 

Shining the light of God’s Holy fire

And the peace of His precious Dove.

 

I thank Him for the freedom

To choose to live this way,

Grounded in His wisdom

And the right to have my say.

​

May we ever remember

The blood upon which we stand.

It makes us all defenders

Of the brotherhood of man.
