Ofttimes

Ofttimes we worry and perplex
Upon grave subjects so complex
Childhood of birthdays and cupcakes
Threshold to chances of mistakes
Now dreams and hopes and longing thought
Lead us onto paths more than not

This season explodes with knowledge
And we must seek high goals full-fledged
With high goals we’re not left to chance
We’re robust- we sing and we dance
Be humble and pray and be true,
Be grateful and smart and clean too
-------------------------------------
We know what is right
We know what is true
Repent and be bright,
With God we belong

We know what is right
We know what is true
With these goals of light,
We’ve help to be strong
