If you think you are beaten you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;

That you helped a single person,
Of the many that ...

One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.
One smile begins a friendship,
One handclasp lifts a soul.

One word can frame the goal
One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room
One candle ...
