Bigger than Me

I want to be a part
Of something bigger than myself
Something bigger than that
Which I can fit into my hand

I want to hear my name
As I'm flipping through the news
For something grand and bedazzling
For starting something new

I want to see my face
As I browse the morning paper
Though I may not know the world
To world I'll be no stranger

I want to be a part
Of something bigger than just me
Alone or hand in hand
I want to make history

In something bigger than myself
I'll make myself a part
With my eloquence and writing hand
Today I make my start
