ENJOY LIFE’S JOURNEY

We know that we need to endure to the end,
Never give up trying and on God always depend,
But endure sounds so sad and quite foreboding,
It could make one fear, in their shoes start quaking.

But say as you start each new day, endure it well,
Put a happy smile on your face, and the world tell
Of the light of the gospel, how it lights the way
And helps you be happy and smiling on a bad day.

As you carry your load, gaze around and try and see
The beauty of nature, welcome the shade of a old tree,
Find a friend who needs a helping hand or a prayer,
And your journey will be much brighter I do declare.

Enjoy every foot step, enjoy every stride that you take,
Even if you may be tired or your heart is about to break,
If you look around at others you will nearly always find
Someone worse off than you, a chance for you to be kind.

Smile as your feet are sore as you tread the righteous way
Endure well the road that is set out for you each new day,
Be a ray of sunshine as you enjoy your journey here,
Then every step you take will bring heaven ever near.
