STAYING POWER
When things go wrong as they sometimes
will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all
uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are
high,
And you want to smile, but you have to
sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone one of us sometimes learns.
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it
out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell just how close you
are,
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when your hardest
hit—
It’s when things seem worst that you must
not quit.
