Life is a lesson we teach to our children By living, not babbling words Songs about courage and stories of honor Are seen as deception When spoken by cowards who barter Their hearts and their souls Who scoff at the lessons that They learned as children From people who lied to themselves Life is a lesson we teach to our children By living the words that we sing Living with courage and living with honor Living with laughter and love When nothing is asked for giving Our hearts and our souls Delighting in the lessons that We learned as children From people who lived with the greatest of joy Don’t seek salvation in Lives of your children Give them salvation in yours
