Today is the first day of the rest of my life;

I can fill it with joy, I can fill it with strife.

I can follow the world and do my own thing,

or follow the Lord, reap the blessings He'll bring.

No longer a child, I can make my own way.

I can choose what to do with my life every day.

I'm dependent on God though for the air that I breathe,

for the warmth of the sun, for the health that I need,

for protection from harm as I walk down the street,

for providing strong faith so I won't meet defeat.

He reminds me that all that I have comes from Him

and He loved me enough to die for my sin.

He gives me a choice, now I must decide

as I graduate, will I walk by His side?

Yes, I'll walk the straight path from now to the end,

trusting completely my Savior, my Friend.

Thanking Him, praising Him, for all that He's done;

I'm looking ahead

my future's begun!

今天，是我生命的第一天;

生活充满喜悦，生命拼搏进取。

我追随着这个世界，做自己的事情，

或者，追随着上帝，收割着他给我带来的祝福。

我，已不在是个小孩子了，我有我主张。

选择每天要做的事情。

我依赖着上帝，因为我每天需要呼吸空气，

需要阳光的温暖，需要健康的身体，

走在大街上的时候，需要远离伤害，

需要坚强的信念，来支柱我不会遭遇失败和打击。

他提醒我说我所拥有的都是他给予我的

他爱我爱得到死，因为我的罪恶。

他给我一个选择，而我现在必须做出选择……

毕业后，我是否还会站在他的一边?

会的，我一生都会把这条“笔直”的道路走下去的，

我完全相信我的救世主基督，我的朋友。

我要感谢他，歌颂他，因为他做了那么多的事情;

我向前望去……

我的未来开始启航了!
