Woorden: John Denver. The Gold And Beyond.

On a snow crystal morning
Some place close to heaven
On the side of a mountain
In a race for the sun
In a matter of moments
The dream of a lifetime is won

There?s a fire in the heart
And it feels like a hunger
The spirit is burning
Consumed by a flame
To be one of the best of the best
In the world is its name

To go faster and farther
Than anyone ever before
To be braver and stronger
And truer and then even more
To give all that you can be
And all that you?ve ever longed for

In the eyes of a mountain
All people are equal
In the eyes of all people
Our soul can be seen
In the course of our struggle
We?ll know what humanity means

To give all that you can be
And all that you?ve ever longed for

We gather together
To face one another
We gather in silence
To sing for the sun
We gather in peace
To go for the gold and beyond
