A Broken Clock
If a broken clock
Could be twice correct a day,
Then I have no right being less
No matter what my time may say;
Tho' yesterday is long past
And today is almost due,
Yet the future may be born
With all hopes emerging new.
For if a man dies,
Yet shall he live life again,
If in God he does not doubt
Nor believe in himself in vain;
Therefore, if a broken clock
Could be twice correct a day,
Then we have no right my friend
To waste our dear lives away!
