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 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 he might have one, had he stuck it out
Don’t give up, though the pace seems slow
You might succeed with another blow
Once the goal is nearer then
It seems to a faint and faltering man
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down
How close he was to the golden crown
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint in the clouds of doubt
And you can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit
