"A few years ago I shot a music video for one of my original songs titled 'Higher Each Day.' I thought that the message in the song would be perfect for the 'Endurance and Hope' blog for the parish community. It's an inspirational song that encourages us to fight through our obstacles and to continue to strive for our goals and purposes."

Higher Each Day
by Lyndon Batiste
Verse 1
Sometimes life deals you a blow that you cannot take
And no matter how loud you scream it just won’t go away
But you’ve gotta keep your head up keep your eyes upon the goal
Don’t you let nothing in life take from you the dream that is yours
Chorus
Though sometimes I feel like crying
Though sometimes I feel like dying
I believe, that I’m going to see another day
Leaving all my past behind me
Lord I’ve got to keep on trying
To Go Higher Each Day
Verse 2
Every scar has a story that you can tell
But it’s up to you whether or not you’ll prevail
But you’ve gotta choose to win
Don’t take less than you deserve
Stay committed to the dream in your heart
And life will open doors.
Chorus
Though sometimes I feel like crying
Though sometimes I feel like dying
I believe, that I’m going to see another day
Leaving all my past behind me
Lord I’ve got to keep on trying
To Go Higher Each Day
Spoken:
Sometimes in life
We can’t explain why things happen
But we have to choose to win
We have to choose to overcome
We have to choose to be victorious
You’ve gotta Believe it…Go Higher and Higher
You’ve gotta believe in yourself, Go Higher and Higher
