A home without a wall,
Our haven without ends,
A circle we all call
Our Family of Friends!

Perseverence dons the burden of life,
So blistering is it to bear;
To reprieve depressions of yesterday's strife-
It cries, "For tomorrow we prepare!"

Whence undeterred by the disgruntled need
When humanity only offers less,
It stands tall for every man to heed:
Only with effort comes success.

      
The greatest risk in life is not taking one at all.
