Bit #10: Lessons in Lyrics~Dream Big

Little Life Lesson and Bit of Grace 10: Dream Big
We all know how powerful music is and there are fantastic life lessons found in music lyrics. Each Wednesday, we will feature a song's lyrics that express a life lesson we want to share. Have a suggestion for a song, please email us...thanks so much for your help and support.
A few years ago when I was pregnant, Ryan Shupe and the Rubberband came out with the song, "Dream Big." This song immediately brought tears to my eyes and was the epitome for what I wanted for my child in this crazy world they were about to enter in to.
Dream, just dream! Dream about anything and work hard to make it happen.
When you cry be sure to dry your eyes
'Cause better days are sure to come
And when you smile be sure to smile wide
Don't let them know that they have won
And when you walk, walk with pride
Don't show the hurt inside
Because the pain will soon be gone
And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue
'Cause when you dream it might come true
When you dream, dream big
When you laugh be sure to laugh out loud
'Cause it will carry all your cares away
And when you see, see the beauty all around and in yourself
And it'll help you feel okay
And when you pray, pray for strength
To help you carry on
When the troubles come your way
And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue
'Cause when you dream it might come true
When you dream, dream big
When you laugh be sure to laugh out loud
'Cause it will carry all your cares away
And when you see, see the beauty all around and in yourself
And it'll help you feel okay
And when you pray, pray for strength
To help you carry on
When the troubles come your way
And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue
'Cause when you dream it might come true
When you dream, dream big

  2. This is my husbands and my favorite song. When we worked with chronically ill kids, we played this song for them and danced and sang and made art work to it. We have plans to paint it on the walls of our first babies' nursery! I didn't know anyone else loves this song like we do!
