My eyes open at a new day's start.
Out of my bed I hastily dart.
I shake off my doubts about the day.
and look forward to both work and play.
because today is a day to make my spirit fly.
with pride in my step and my head held high.
I hope to create smiles on people's faces
on this day and in all places
I want to get up this day to show
all the world all that I know.
To show how to love and how to care
and to show how to learn and how to dare.
Dare to take on the challenges of life.
Those challenges that cause pain and strife.
I must get out of bed and fast
before this blessed day is past.
Everyday I awaken wanting to do a good deed
because only then is my soul truly freed.
What's your reason for getting out of bed?
