lyrics
Hi, little Galaxy,
Born from a star
That’s who you are.
Soon you’ll come to be
Bright in mind and soul,
A worthy goal.
Astride the heavens,
Strong and beautiful.
So glad we’ve been given
New life, it's wonderful.
Who would think something so small
Could reach us all?
Oh, to think something so vast
Could such light cast.
Sail, little Galaxy,
Guided true and far
by your lodestar.
Travel brave and free.
Find your way to live,
You have much to give.
Astride the heavens,
Strong and beautiful.
So glad we’ve been given
New life, it's wonderful.
Who would think something so small
Could touch us all?
Oh, to think something so vast
Could such love cast.
In the sky, I see the
Infinite worlds aspin.
In your eyes, I see the
Infinite sky within.
Smile little Galaxy.
Spread your light around,
What joy we've found.
I pray you'll be happy,
Your efforts not in vain
As you wax and wane.
Astride the heavens,
Strong and beautiful.
So glad we've been given
New life, it's wonderful.
Astride the heavens,
Your arms open wide.
No longer hidden,
Together outside
Who would think someone so small...
(Binding us all)
Oh, to think someone so vast…
(Growing so fast)
Star, you were one now you’re two…
(Marvel in you)
See how their hearts sing in tune…
