[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
May you stay forever young

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
May your hands always be steady
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
And may you stay forever young

[Chorus]
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
May you stay forever young
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the light surrounding you
May your heart always be joyful
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young

[Chorus]
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
May you stay forever young

[Outro]
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
Forever young (Ooh, forever young)
May you stay forever young
