Courage

A heart of courage beats inside
A fire of strength that cannot hide
It will not be defeated, it will not be cowed
It will not be broken, no matter how loud

The storms of life will come and go
But courage will not be overthrown
It will remain strong and sure
When others are no longer pure

The courage of a heart will never fail
It will not be broken by any gale
It will stand strong through the darkest night
And be the guiding light

It will not be swayed by doubt or fear
It will not be broken by any tear
It will remain true and never falter
Through any storm or alter

The courage of a heart is a wondrous thing
It will not be broken, no matter what life brings
It will remain strong, no matter the cost
It will be a beacon that will never be lost.
