Make It To the Top

R-adiance of reflecting rays
O-f the sun spreads everywhere; 
L-ightness lets the dawn
A-chieve the time to shine brighter.
N-ight before the early morn promises to vanish at daybreak; 
D-ark fades into the shadows, letting the fun replace the ache.

P-ure delight turns the moment
I-nto a happy celebration; 
N-ook is filled with joy, 
G-reetings cheer up the occasion.
O-n twenty-first January, may the Lord lift you up; 
L-etting you climb the hill and make it to the top.
