When things
go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the
road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the
funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you
want to smile, but 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
of us sometimes learns,
And many
a failure turns about,
When you
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 how close you are,
It may
be near when it seems so far,
So stick
to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when
things seem worse
that you
must not quit.
