Born to search, Born to seek, Born to help, The mild and meek. Born to rule, Born to lead, Born to show, We can be freed. Born to Mary, Born to atone, Born to break The hearts of stone. Born to rally, Born to rebel, Born to dampen The fires of hell. Born to save, Born to die, Born a Saviour For you and I.
