“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities!
Without a humble but reasonable confidence in
your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”
– Norman Vincent Peale, author

Go to sleep every night and start to believe
You can accomplish anything so believe.

Little children are running around in the park on a sunny day
They have so much potential in the world if they just believe.

Children asking their parents how they can be rich and happy
And all their parents can do is smile and say, Just believe.

People always doubt others and say “never”
All we can do is believe, believe, believe.

We all need confidence in ourselves
So close our eyes, inhale, and believe.

Never break, never fall, never fade
Pause the world around you and believe.

Newly hatched birds chirping as they try to fly
They jump off the branch afraid, but they believe.

College student sitting in the lobby waiting for his job interview
Nervous like every college student, sweating, stuttering, but he believes.

David tells King Saul he is ready to face Goliath, and armed
With a sling and a stone, he’s victorious because he believes.
