On my feet I will stand
With wings spread, I will hover fast
And fly high. I don’t want to be a loser,
But a winner, so I will soar.
Reaching the sun and hitting the goal,
Reaching the big blue sky and having the prize.
I don’t want to be down forever
I don’t want to be a coward.
I don’t want to be chicken that flies too low.
I will soar and fly high.
I will lower my pride and be humble.
To do this, I must ask grace from the mighty One who sees me.
Like an eagle, I will fly higher than clouds.
I will soar high, I will succeed in life.
