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 is 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 quit.
Life is queer with its twist and turn,
As everyone of us somtimes 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
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.
