Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Open the gates and seize the day
Don't be afraid and don't delay
Nothing can break us
No one can make us
Give our rights away
Arise and seize the day
[Verse 2]
Now is the time to seize the day
Now is the time to seize the day
Send out the call and join the fray
Send out the call and join the fray
Wrongs will be righted
If we're united
Let us seize the day
[Verse 3]
Friends of the friendless, seize the day
Friends of the friendless, seize the day
Raise up the torch and light the way
Raise up the torch and light the way
Proud and defiant
We'll slay the giant
Let us seize the day
[Verse 4]
Neighbor to neighbor
Father to son
One for all and all for one
[Verse 5]
Open the gates and seize the day
Open the gates and seize the day
Don't be afraid and don't delay
Don't be afraid and don't delay
Nothing can break us
No one can make us
Give our rights away
[Verse 6]
Neighbor to neighbor
Father to son
One for all and all for one
