Once upon a time when hope was lost
All alone nowhere to go
Then you came to lend a helping hand

You gave me strength
for this was what you said


Don't be afraid Don't stop believing
Hope is a shining light that guides and shows the way
Be brave and take a step of faith

Make the world a better place
for you and I will lead the way


We'll keep on shining, Shine Singapore
Reach out to every friend show them that you care
Keep on shining

One voice one heart we'll keep the love alive
Stand up for what is right
