'Burning'. Lyrics of RYD 2009 Theme Song
Burning
Lyrics of the Official Song of Regional Youth Day (RYD) 2009, Kabankalan City

You are the lamp that lights our life
You are the fire deep inside
You are the candle in the dark
The spark of light that keeps on burning
You are the heat that warms us up
You are the force that keeps us going
The voice that says don’t be afraid
The fiery spark that keeps on glowing
Chorus:
And so we come before you now
To you we lift our solemn vow
We’re gonna keep on burning
Amidst the dark will linger on
Right on until the break of dawn
We’re gonna keep on burning
Keep on shining on
You are the shield that keeps us safe
You are the ever living grace
You gave your life to set us free
Your steadfast love that keeps on burning…burning
(Repeat chorus)
And I won’t allow the flame to die away
I’ll keep hanging on until the break of day
(Repeat chorus)
Keep on burning
Keep on shining
Keep on burning
Keep on shining on…

Kindle the spirit of being young
Youth and Students for the Advancement of Gender Equality (YSAGE) member Ben Secretario “The youth are leading the industry, the society. If we only feed them with the right advocacy and with the right mentality about things, it will take shape. Kailangan lang is to feed them with the right attitude and mentality on things,” he continues.
This statement came from an empowered young man who rejects the common label of youth as "the hope of our motherland". He is only invoking the mind of our fellow young men and women that in the new era where poverty, exploitation and confusion in society show there is a need of massive combat by the young. Empowering young men and women is not an easy work to do. We need to deal with motivational training, patience and courage. We can if we only believe in the spirit of oneness.
We should start to kindle the spirit of being young, God-centered individuals and advocates, though we will have to consider individual differences and personal perspectives. Through several powerful camps and trainings with the guidance of God, we can achieve what we aim for. I am confident that this can happen because I am an empowered young woman product of Youth and Students for the Advancement of Gender Equality (YSAGE) - Negros Echo camp.
