Spirit of Discovery

The spirit of discovery
Alive and well today
Burning in our hearts like Roman candles
Set out for adventure
And half a world away
We bet it all on a calculated gamble
The open sea before us
The endless sky above
The feeling of the wind on our faces
We gave up the comfort
And luxuries of home
In hopes of finding undiscovered places
Bright are the faces looking toward the new frontier
Bright like the stars that shine above me
Spirit of discovery
Spirit of discovery
A hunger to explore
Here’s to the Age of Exploration
Standing on the shoulders
Of men who came before
Going farther than their legs would take 'em
We are the wanderers, we are the pioneers
These are the days, these are the memories
Spirit of discovery
Bright are the faces looking toward the new frontier
Bright like the stars that shine above me
These are the moments I’ll remember through the years
These are the things that leave me wondering
Oh, the spirit of discovery!
Spirit of discovery!
