Pray And Try Again

REMEMBER ALWAYS My Friends;


Life is a long and bumpy road.
We each carry our troubles, like a heavy load.
There are many hard turns and some dead ends.
But whenever we're stuck, We must Pray, and Try Again.

No One's got an easy ride.
But failure can be pushed aside.
When we give up hope nothing good can happen.
So, when all seems lost, Remember my friend, you must Pray, and Try Again.

You can't have a meal, if you dont sit at a table.
You wont learn the moral, if u dont read the fable.
You cant take control, if you are plagued by inaction.
And you wont overcome loss, if you dont Pray and Try Again.

When the coins in the air, if you dont pick heads or tails,
Having not made a choice, you are bound to Fail.
But if you choose wrong, you can always still Win,
Because on the next flip my friend, you cant still Pray, and Try Again.

Those who Succeed seem to have it made.
Basking in the sunshine or lying in the shade.
But they've been down too, my friend, and it was just then
That they picked themselves up, so they could Pray, and Try Again.

So, my friends, when your spirit is Weak and you need to Cry
And you want to be Happy, but you have to Sigh.
When things seem bleakest, that's the time my freind, when
you MUST shrug it all off, and then just Pray, and Try, Try, Again!
