May your courage never stumble,
May your heart never fail,
May your soul be never humble,
May your smile never pale.

So walk upright into the darkness,
Head held high and bold;
Never let them see you grimace
Though the pain be hard and cold.
  
My heart and prayers go on your journey
Down those halls where darkness bides;
And then I'll be there when you rally,
Your hand held gently at our sides.
                                     
May your courage be ever dauntless,
May your heart be ever gay,
May your soul be ever fearless
And your smile be here to stay!
