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 deb ts are high,
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 may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit –
It’s when things go wrong that you mustn’t quit!
