Life is filled with ups and downs,

And many dangerous turn-a-rounds:

Sorrow that can break your heart,

And pain that tears your soul apart.

 

When you think you know the truth,

And search for dreams from lost youth,

Life comes and takes it all away

And leaves the lesson, “Nothing stays.”

 

You go through Life with wounded pride,

While something good in you has died.

How can you live when hope is gone?

Ask God to help you carry on.
