Life might seem hard from day to day

And yet…

The sun still rises every morn

Hope awakens when a child is born

Friends tell us we are not forlorn

Locks come back when our hair is shorn

Stars and moon shine every night

Fear and dread vanish from sight

When we pray to God about our plight

Even if all is not set right.

There are times when we are lost and alone

And yet…

When we look we see a friend

Who tells us this is not the end

Though the road might turn and wend

We need not break we need not bend

Follow me, I am the Way

That is what I heard Him say

Though you might have lost your way

Turn to Me each and every day.

Yes,

Life is full of ups and downs

When every day is full of frowns

When things don’t ever go our way

Not just usually, every day

We do not know where we should turn

We think salvation we can earn

We pout and cry and weep and mope

We cry aloud, “There is no hope!”

And yet…

And yet…
