I shall ride the waves of life;
the rough and the smooth,
till the very end.

I shall not despair when I crash,
nor be exuberant when I find myself upon the highest tide.

I shall ride through the storms,
through the vicious winds,
through the overwhelming darkness.

I shall ride through the sunny days,
beneath the open sea-blue skies,
as the gentle breath of God renews my soul.

I shall ride the waves of life,
always moving forward.
My destiny propels me to the finish line,
who can stop the hands of time?
