Life is Hard

By Rhonda Cooley

October 4, 2002

 

Life is hard and never goes according to plan,

Some would say, just stand proud; take it like a man.

But I'm tossed about and driven with every wind,

I'm trying hard to find courage to lift up my downcast chin.

Sometimes my listless soul cannot find the strength to endure,

If life must be this hard, I do not want to sign up for another tour.

 

I try to find the hope that dwelled within before,

I try to find that "open window", after that fierce slammed door.

If after the struggle the victory is sure to come to me,

I hope I am not too downcast to lift my eyes to see.

Life is hard but always goes better than you fear,

So lift up your saddened heart and try to find some cheer.

 

Maybe tomorrow will be better than today,

Maybe tomorrow I will find an easier way.

But if tomorrow finds me still at the end of my rope,

I will look to God for He will give me hope.

He has never forsaken me nor left my side,

Even though many times in my life I've cried.

Background Sound
"Let it Be"

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
