Children of the future
give thanks -

For you have seen
the birth of a miracle
in the sunrise -

May the light of your
righteous spirit
keep you strong,
and bless you to see
tomorrows dawn -

The birth of a miracle

And upon life's wavering
journey -
Go forth positively,
without fear -

Pray for awareness -
Pray for love -
Pray for understanding -
Pray for goodwill -

Let God be your mirror
to reflect his commandments
upon the world -

In his truth
you will find yourself
new,
with a Devine energy
that will last through
the most perilous of times -

And all of your tomorrow's 
will be as miracle's,
blessed by the hands 
of God -

Go in peace
and give thanks
Children of the future -
