"SAY YES TO LIFE"

                                              Written by Dotti Holmberg-Waddell

VERSE 1:                 It is hard to grin and bear it          

When things just don't go right   

But find the courage to keep on trying

And say a big yes to life.

VERSE 2:                 When things aren't going your way

Don't let it get the best of you

Know that the sun is behind the clouds

You just have to believe it's true.

BRIDGE 1:                If you're feeling sad

You can feel better

If you mean it and say:

I'll find good in today

Then sadness will go away.

VERSE 3:                 Patience is a good friend

To have around when there's rain

Add a little sun and a rainbow's begun

And that's how you learn to dream.

BRIDGE 2:               So, roll with the punches

Hold your head up high

Take things in stride

Do things with pride.

And say a big yes to life.

REPEAT VERSE 1 

REPEAT VERSE 2 AND THEN BRIDGE 2 TWICE

ENDING:        "JUST SAY A BIG YES, SAY A BIG YES,

                         SAY A BIG YES TO LIFE"             

PLEASE NOTE:  FOR STAGE PERFORMANCE WE ADDED,
AFTER THE LAST WORD OF SONG: ALL KIDS ON STAGE JUMP UP
AND SHOUT:  "YES!"
