The Chronicles of Bren: Captured

Song History
Every man and woman has dreams. It is the ones who choose to believe they can do what they dream that actually live their life the fullest! We can either dream of flying and spread our wings and step out of the nest, or we can stay in the nest and expect others to do the flying for us. It is in the nest that all the waste and stench of doing nothing permeates the air. Do we really want to live like that? The choice is always ours. We always have a choice as to how we respond to life. Always. Life is meant to be enjoyed and dreams are meant for living. My greatest joy? Serving others! You can do that in the unique way in which you have been created. What will you dare to dream? Will you let others keep you down or will you choose to be a dreamer even when others choose to stay in the nest? If life is an adventure, what are you doing to make the most of yours? Just think about it! And dare to be what you dream! Just as Lee had a choice to make once he got back from Bren, so do you and I. We can choose to let others dictate our feelings and our self-perceptions or we can choose to walk as princes and princesses in the Kingdom. Which sounds best to you?

Verse
Life is best lived with a sense of adventure
You can wonder what flying is like
Or you can take to the sky!
Life is best lived in wonder and splendor!
Even when you’re knocked down
Just get back up and dare to believe!
Chorus
Live the adventure!
Conquer the wind!
To the ends of the earth and right back again!
Live the adventure!
Dare but to dream!
Around every corner new sights to be seen!
But you’ll never fly if you never try to conquer the wind!
Live the adventure!
Dare to believe
Knowing he cannot fly who won’t spread his wings!
Live the adventure!
Knight take your horse
Ride to the horizon
Eyes fixed on the course!
But you’ll never see what you don’t believe!
And you’ll never live what you never dare to be!
Verse
Life is best lived with a sense of pure wonder
Even storms that we face can be seen from a new point of view!
Life is best lived with a sense of pure wonder!
Dare to see far beyond what most human eyes dare to conceive!
Chorus
Live the adventure!
Conquer the wind!
To the ends of the earth and right back again!
Live the adventure!
Dare but to dream!
Around every corner new sights to be seen!
But you’ll never fly if you never try to conquer the wind!
Live the adventure!
Dare to believe
Knowing he cannot fly who won’t spread his wings!
Live the adventure!
Knight take your horse
Ride to the horizon
Eyes fixed on the course!
But you’ll never see what you don’t believe!
And you’ll never live what you never dare to be!
Chorus
Live the adventure!
Conquer the wind!
To the ends of the earth and right back again!
Live the adventure!
Dare but to dream!
Around every corner new sights to be seen!
But you’ll never fly if you never try to conquer the wind!
Live the adventure!
Dare to believe
Knowing he cannot fly who won’t spread his wings!
Live the adventure!
Knight take your horse
Ride to the horizon
Eyes fixed on the course!
But you’ll never see what you don’t believe!
And you’ll never live what you never dare to be!
You – dare to be!
