If I could bring you happiness

Then I would choose this day;

To thus remove the awful stress,

That's always in your way.

 

You need to know a better life

Than you have known before;

And money will not ever buy,

The good things held in store.

 

You hold the key to all those things

That make a day so right;

You too can have a heart that sings,

E'en through the darkest night.

 

Let peace be that which governs you

May love be your best friend;

May joy be that which sees you through,

Until this life shall end.
