Though there were obstacles in your way,
you made it to this day
This is just the beginning.
If you let nothing stop you,
There is so much more in store for you.
You have what it takes to go the distance in life.
You made the sacrifice
You got to this place
Because you decided to stay in the race.
It is said, "The race is not given to the swift or to the strong,
But to the one who endures until the end."
If you endure, you can win
What set you apart from those who did not make it to this day
Is your determination, strength and endurance.
Graduates, I congratulate you
And encourage you to continue to go as far as you can go.
There is so much more you need to learn.
Knowledge is a life-long pursuit.
You are never to smart or too old to learn something new.
P. Harris
There's A Winner in You
There's a winner in you.
Just let it shine through
All your dreams can come true.
Cause there's a winner in you.
Look beyond what you see.
Faith is the key
The impossible can be,
Your dreams can come true.
Cause there's a winner in you.
