Great Courage

Great Courage is accepting one's fear

And staying the course.

Great Courage is stone cold froze

And passing the pause.

Great Courage is facing one's worst

And learning to cope.

Great Courage is feeling despair

And still holding hope.

Great Courage is conquering the fall

And rising again BOLD!

Great Courage is frail stood tall

And battling on when old!

Great Courage is hard earned and fought for

Neither Bought, Nor Sold!
