As we metamorphose
“being mistook we burnt the book
thoughts rest, we dwell in our heart’s nest
touched by spirit, our body shook
by God’s light blest as we undressed” - Anonymous
We lead a life that we can look back and be proud of
striving to be the best that we can be
as we let the future take its course
We accept the challenges as they roll in
keep our chin up and watch for fallen brethren
We're in this marathon of life all headed for the finish line
trusting there's a just reward for leading the good life
our conscience clear we go forth without fear
We grow our wings one good deed at a time
while our soul records our metamorphosis
