Shine On
I wish it all to you; far beyond the very best.
You deserve to achieve your hopes, your dreams.
In your moments of peace, I pray you find a rest.
Never give up, even when troubles burst at the seams.
Set your sights upon the farthest, brightest star.
Learn to love life for what it really is, a thrilling ride.
You are one of the few people, who are bound to go far.
Never let your past influence who you are inside.
May the one who is born to love you, be gentle, be kind.
I pray he sees you for who you are, and what you can be.
Sees more then just a pretty face, takes time to see your mind.
I hope you will find beauty in the littlest things you see.
Cherish a mountain breeze, the winter snow, spring rain.
Try to make each day you live one you'll remember.
Let happiness fill your life; let others help ease your pain.
Give it a second thought before you surrender.
And during your times of trouble remember who you are.
Who you have helped along your way through life.
Keep burning bright don't fade away; you're a burning star.
Let others continue to bask in your earth giving light.
Shine on; shine on; shine on.
