DON'T QUIT

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.

Success is failure

turned inside out,

The silver tint of

the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell

how close you are,

It maybe near when

it seems a far,

So stick to the light

when you're hardest hit...

It's when things go wrong

that you MUSTN'T quit.
