Do the STROKE

I wake up with a worry in my mind,

Talking like I’m always running blind.

But I put my two feet on the floor,

Do a stroke and go farther than before.

When I’m running out, feeling weak and small

Every stroke reminds me I can still stand tall

Pushes past the doubt I used to hold

Turns my fear to fire, makes me bold

(Chorus)

Do the stroke, one stroke at a time,

Every daily practice, every chance you climb.

Every little effort shapes the life you make,

Every new decision isthe path you want to take.

Every daily practice, that’s a stroke I do,

Every chance I’m taking is a stroke times two.

Every little effort is a stroke I choose,

Every time I try, that’s a stroke I use!

I see a big task right in front of me,

Looks impossible as far as I can see.

But I do a stroke and push myself on through,

Then I see it’s doable like I always knew!

(Chorus)

Do the stroke, one stroke at a time,

Every daily practice, every chance you climb.

Every little effort shapes the life you make,

Every new decision isthe path you want to take.

Looking back at all the roads I crossed,

Nights I thought that everything was lost.

Every single stroke that pushed me through,

Showed me the impossible things I could do!

(Bridge)

Every stroke we do turns a “no” to “yes,”

Little bits of courage in the middle of the mess.

Every stroke we choose when we want to quit,

Helps us see the truth that we can handle it.

(Chorus)

Do the stroke, one stroke at a time,

Every daily practice, every chance you climb.

Every little effort shapes the life you make,

Every new decision isthe path you want to take.

Do the stroke, one stroke at a time,

Every daily practice, every chance you climb.

Every little effort shapes the life you make,

Every new decision isthe path you want to take.
