Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo
Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo

Through the tears, she can hear
Many questions swirling around
Where to turn, so much to learn
Endless confusion pouring down
She lets him scream and swear
Then they kneel in prayer
And they make a vow that no matter how this plays out
Rest assured let there be no doubt

We will celebrate, celebrate life
Find the joy in the journey
And shine our light.
Many hearts, many minds grow hope and make us strong
Together we’ll overcome and celebrate life

Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo
Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo

I’m amazed by the smile
And the courage of a child
In awe of the woman’s resolve to live strong
I’m inspired by the man who embraces a plan
Come what may they will live on
If you don’t know what to say to someone, just be there
Love and laugh, take some walks, and breath some ocean air
If we stand together we will survive
We will bid this beast goodbye
So let us keep our dream alive

And we’lll celebrate, celebrate life
Find the joy in the journey
And shine our light.
Many hearts, many minds grow hope and make us strong
Together we’ll overcome and celebrate life

The only thing in life that never changes
Is that there will always be change
May we all find comfort in knowing
That change brings hope and hope grows faith
Have faith, change will come. Yeah, Yeah!

Celebrate, celebrate life
Find the joy in the journey
And shine our light.
Many hearts, many minds grow hope and make us strong
Together we’ll overcome and celebrate life

Celebrate life
Find the joy in the journey
And shine our light.
Many hearts, many minds grow hope and make us strong
Together we’ll overcome and celebrate life

Celebrate. Life. oooo
Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo
Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo
Hey. Celebrate. Life. oooo oooo.
Celebrate life
