The future is bright
because of the sacrifice
and receiving eternal life
by accepting Christ. 

The future is bright
because you are prepared
by accepting God’s Plan
and what you’ve declared.

The future is bright
because of what has begun
which is only the beginning
of what is to come.

The future is bright,
No need to fret
or be extremely upset
over what you don’t get.

The future is bright
because to God you pray
and as long as God is first,
second is okay.

The future is bright
because of God’s grace 
and gaining the strength
to finish the race.

The future is bright
because you go onward
getting closer and closer 
to the ultimate reward.
