Aspiration

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)



Aspiration with elation
Can make some dreams come true
If I do more than years before
With faith and all I do.

I must believe I can achieve
The goals I set for me
To have a chance I will advance
And be all I can be!

But if I doubt, I'll do without
Success, I want to find.
Therefore, I will work hard until
My effort is refind.
