Do not be afraidStand tall and straight with feet together and make a serious, confident, determined face.

because the LordPoint to the sky with one hand

Is with me everywhere I goPoint to self and march in place.

He’s always so close… Hold arms out as if to hug someone.

I’m never aloneSimultaneously point to self with one hand and to the sky with the other hand.
