You Must Not Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you a bit
Rest if you must, but do not quit.

Life is queer with its twist and turns
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won, had he stuck it out.

Don't give up, though the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.

And you can never tell how you are
It may be near when it seems so far
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things get worse that you must not quit.
