Everyday that goes on by
Offers hope for tomorrow
With all we have
We'll make the best
For our future, our lives
Chorus :
With our heads held high
Let our hearts prepare
To pursue our dreams
To serve and to share
We will soar on up
To the stars above
Where together we will shine!

Our light will shine for our nation
As we reach for the world
