  A guiding light beacons
 From the safety of the shore.
 In the darkest night or roughest storm
 It's light shines forever more.
 
 The guiding light gives me courage
 To know that I'm not alone.
 And through the roughest water
 It's calling me to come home.
 
 The guiding light gives me strength
 For I know that I can cope.
 No matter how scared I become
 The guiding light gives me hope.
