A SEAHAWK SALUTE

By Jean Monce Bryant


To start the game--a coin toss
To end the game--a painful loss
But you can hold your heads up high
You're SUPER and I'll tell you why

Just stop and look at what you've won
Your Victory is not undone
With perseverance talent grace
You've earned a very special place

You've played with honor
Played with class
A legacy
None can surpass

If Super Bowl
The final game
Then Super Duper
Is your name

When you play fair
And you don't cheat
Well don't you know
There's no defeat

Some folks will win
At any price
And that has Honor
In it's vise

You've reached to others
In their pain
And so to me
It's very plain

You show we're here
To share our good
And really bring
True Brotherhood

To hospitals
To bring some cheer
Those children
Are so very dear

To care for others
So in need
That is no idle
Simple deed

So hold your heads up
Way up high
And know that God
Is standing by

Money and Fame
Are not the Prize
But are you worthy
In THOSE eyes

Let's feed the hungry
House the poor
True Brotherhood
That will endure

Not fancy cars
The glitz the fame
But what we're doing
In His name

For God is watching
That is true
THAT referee
Is there with you

Though others seem
To win the Prize
The real win
Is in God's eyes

If you play fair
And you don't cheat
Well don't you see
There's No Defeat
