Gather ye ribbons of color
Admire the vast array
Everything is unfolding perfectly
Forget the rain, no need for cover
Get on the field and play
Gather ye ribbons of color
Float new lengths high and over
Invite the wind and all it sways
Everything is unfolding perfectly
Let fires of change uncover
Confidence lights the way
Gather ye ribbons of color
Weave amongst each other
Conceive a new display
Everything is unfolding perfectly
Patterns love one another
Creation will have its say
Gather ye ribbons of color
Everything is unfolding perfectly
