I believe in springtime: fresh and new and bright;
I believe in morning dew and shining morning light.
I believe in sunbeams, melting all the snow;
And I believe when winter's done
The streams will run and rivers flow.
I believe in eagles soaring up so high;
I believe in trees and mountains reaching to the sky.
I believe in green things; all the gifts of earth;
Growing up from tiny seeds that spring has brought to birth.
I believe in summer; I believe in fall.
But most of all I believe in God.
Who made it and blessed it all.
I believe in people, living all as one;
Sharing all their songs and laughter, happiness and fun;
I believe in friendship; taking time to care;
And feeling sure of someone else,
And someone feeling glad you're there.
Then I start to wonder how it all might be
If the world could live together just like you and me.
I believe in hoping; I believe in prayer;
I believe in trying hard and learning how to share.
I believe in dreaming; and, when dreams are through,
Then I believe in trusting God
To help me make dreams come true.
Ik geloof in de lente: fris en nieuw en helder;
Ik geloof in ochtenddauw en stralend ochtendlicht.
Ik geloof in zonnestralen, het smelten van de sneeuw;
En ik geloof dat als de winter voorbij is
De beken zullen vloeien en rivieren stromen.
