By the thoughts you put in action,
By the dreams you strive to reach —
You can shape or form the future
By some hard-sought fact they teach.
Choose the good you want to happen -
It surrounds you in the “now” .

Let God’s wisdom show you how!
Take the path that seems to open:
For you’re walking it today!
You can even change tomorrow
