Don't Quit
_Anon

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 can only sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest, if you must...but don't quit.

Life is funny with its twists and turns
As everyone of us sometimes learn.
And many a failure turns about
When they may have won had they stuck it out.
Don't give up, though the pace seems slow,
You might 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 victors cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he came to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of 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 worst that you mustn't quit.
