They go to the one who trusts in God And always thinks “I can.”

If you think you are beaten, you are; 
If you think you dare not, you don’t, 
If you’d like to win, but think you can’t, 
It’s almost a cinch you won’t.
If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost,
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a person’s faith;
It’s all in the state of mind.
Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster hand;
They go to the one who trusts in God
And always thinks “I can.”
