You must not Quit

When things goes wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
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 down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit!

Life is queer with its twist and turns,
As everyone sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he struck it out;
So don't give up, though the pace seems slow,
You might succeed with another blow!

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint in the 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 are hardest hit,
It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit!
