Keep Your Hope Blazing

KEEP YOUR HOPE BLAZING

Don’t be so down 
and carry a frown.
Put a smile instead
like you are headed
to have a good time,
as you had time after time.

It is all up to you
to make it through 
in this troubled time
to feel great or fine
because life goes on,
no matter what goes on.

SO HAVE YOUR FAITH BURNING
TO KEEP YOUR HOPE BLAZING
FOR IT WILL BE ALL RIGHT
WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT.
 
Right at this moment,
it seems different.
You may feel incomplete,
chafed with all the limits.
Like life is a standstill.
You don’t know until.

Yet, you still have you. 
Yes, the incredible you.
Do the things that turn you on
or love to do to move on
to feel good and be pleased
with what you would accomplish.

SO HAVE YOUR FAITH BURNING
TO KEEP YOUR HOPE BLAZING
FOR IT WILL BE ALL RIGHT
WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT.

This is so well done, it could actually easily be turned into a song. You already have the chorus! Wow! Welcome to Soup Marilene.

Caren, thank you so much. I already recorded my song; but still trying to find somebody to play the guitar or the piano. I'm so sorry for the late reply. I'm a newbie and still trying to find my way to this system. Appreciate it...
