What can the heart do to prevent fear?
How can the mind hold back a tear?

The soul above all is most reliable,
it strengthens us each day.
With the Holy Spirit's help from the Bible,
which helps to guide our way.

When does the heart make a very wise choice?
Why would the mind put down a just voice?

The soul of course is as brave as a horse,
galloping mightily on.
It speaks out from the source using calm force,
but is still graceful as a swan.

To whom could the heart reach out and give a hand?
Where would the mind be lead to give his land?

The soul will remain by our side to the end,
so it can remind us again and again.
The heart and mind will forever stay within,
but the soul can conquer a thousand men.
