Change your life

If you want to be happy tomorrow

Think good thoughts today

If you want to be happy

Take just a moment to pray

This life is your adventure

with a lot of ups and downs

How you think about it

will bring a smile or a frown

Life has its struggles

for each of us in our own way

So if you want to be happy tomorrow

Think good thought today
