Deliver Me a Champion
if I could take this time
stretch it a millennium
make each second mine
with each more evident
if I commit my mind
absorb and assemble
after falls climb
actions that resemble
with always one eye
reminding me my aim
while the other sights
smalls steps on the way
enthusiasm never dies
still I never stay
remember realise
attitudes alternate
risk and rest and rise
through testing times and trial
believe when all is doubt
soldier on through tear and smile
if this way out of reach
a path around or bridge to seek
if dark within a tunnel
the dot of light I see
if I believe in me
never cave to grief
carry on regardless
use ignorance usefully
if I never give up or give in
carry on through new begin
when I can see what others don't
then give up I wont
the power of mind to carry on
deliver me a champion
