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 quit.

Life is strange with its twists and 

turns, as every one of us sometimes 

learns,

And many a fellow 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.

Often the goal is nearer than

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 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 afar.

So stick to the fight when you're 

hardest hit it's when things 

seem the worst That You 

Mustn't Quit.
