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！
