STRIVING FOR THE FUTURE
(All together):
We’re striving for the future each and ev’ry day
We’re looking to tomorrow as we go along our way.
So let’s rise to the occasion with each dawning of the sun,
As we strive for the future and the best in ev’ry one.
(Men only):
A new day is arriving for each child that is born
The child within us looking to the start of very morn.
(Soprano only):
Let’s greet each bright tomorrow with the knowledge of our past,
and let all those around us know that love is going to last.
(All together):
We’re striving for the future each and ev’ry day
We’re looking to tomorrow as we go along our way.
So let’s rise to the occasion with each dawning of the sun,
As we strive for the future and the best in every one.
Those that have gone before us have given us so much
Let’s recognize our differences in ev’ry one we touch
(Soprano only):
Together we are stronger for the people we have known.
(Alto and Men):
We are stronger.
(All together):
The value of each other is worth more than what we own.
We’re striving for the future each and ev’ry day
We’re looking to tomorrow as we go along our way.
So let’s rise to the occasion with each dawning of the sun,
As we strive for the future and the best in every one.
(All together):
Tomorrow is dependent on the days that we all share.
The days that children live will make a difference if we care.
(Soprano only):
Let’s leave them with the heritage of beauty from us all,
(Alto and Men):
Leave them beauty,
(All together):
As they grow into the future may they stand up proud and tall.
We’re striving for the future each and ev’ry day
We’re looking to tomorrow as we go along our way.
So let’s rise to the occasion with each dawning of the sun,
As we strive for the future,
