Forever Young --- Bob Dylan

May God bless and keep you always May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others  And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young Forever young, forever young 
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous  May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth  and see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young Forever young, forever young 
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful  And may your song always be sung
May you stay forever young Forever young, forever young 
May you stay forever young.

Dylan had four children between 1966-1969.   this uplifting message from a parent to a child. The song has endured as one of Dylan's classics, and in 2009 it was remixed by will.i.am for a popular Pepsi commercial.
