[James Casbolt]

To dream the impossible dream

To fight the unbeatable foe

To bare with unbareable sorrow

To run where the brave dare not go,


To right the unrightable wrong

To love pure from afar

To try when your arms are too weary

To reach the unreachable star,


This is my quest

To follow that star

No matter how hopeless

No matter how far,


And to fight for the right

without question or pause

To be willing to march into hell

For a heavenly cause,


And I know if I only be true

To this glorious quest

My heart will lay peaceful and calm

When I'm laid to my rest


From 'The Impossible Dream'
