To live
Under the open sky
Dreams unbounded
And hopes unfurled
Rippling
In the wind
Our spirits rise
Catching its current
And soar
Through time
And space

Across the land
Over the seas
Into the heavens
Our spirits soar
An aerial ballet
Of aspiration
And ambition
An ambassador
Of our life
To the stars.

Into sun swept skies
And harsher climes
Our spirits soar
Ever higher
Unbound by rooms
Or rules
Or guarantees
They roost
Only to rest

Beneath these skies
Our spirits root
Freedom and fulfillment
Partners to the land
And foundation
Of our great claim
Let lightning strike!
Let kingdom come!
We do not fear
Our spirits soar!
