Don't Quit
--Author unknown--
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 every one of us
Sometimes learns
And many a failure
Turns about
When they might have won
Had they stuck it out
Don't give up
Though the pace seems slow
You may succeed
With another blow
Often the struggler
Has given up
When he might have captured
The victor's cup
And he learned too late
When the night came down
How close he was
To the golden crown
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 worst
That you mustn't quit
