Have Faith

Be willing now
To find your place
Right here somehow
In time and space.


Be willing then
To see things clear
Here, there and when
To frame good cheer.


Be willing to
Do what it takes
To win and woo
Fond joy you make.


Be happy here
To see the light
That offers cheer
In fight or flight.


Be happy still
Despite the pains
That challenge will
In strive and strain.


Be happy now
To live fine zest
As you know how
To forge your best.


And in the end,
Just start again
To voice your trends
With joy's refrain.


And as you start,
Just know the end
Deep in your heart
What soul intends.
