Lyrics:

[English]

Oh, the power to be strong

And the wisdom to be wise

All these things will come to you in time

On this journey that you're making

There'll be answers that you'll seek

And it's you who'll climb the mountain

It's you who'll reach the peak

Son of man, look to the sky

Lift your spirit, set it free

Someday you'll walk tall with pride

Son of man, a man in time you'll be

...

Though there's no one there to guide you

No one to take your hand

But with faith and understanding

You will journey from boy to man

Son of man, look to the sky

Lift your spirit, set it free

Someday you'll walk tall with pride

Son of man, a man in time you'll be

...

In learning you will teach

And in teaching you will learn

You'll find your place beside the ones you love

Oh, and all the things you dreamed of

The visions that you saw

Well, the time is drawing near now

It's yours to claim it all

Son of man, look to the sky

Lift your spirit, set it free

Someday you'll walk tall with pride

Son of man, a man in time you'll be

Yeh-oh

Son of man

Son of man's a man for all to see
