Life's Trials
Some days, it's going to rain.
Some days, it will storm.
Some days in Summer
will be particularly warm.
The wind is going to blow
and the trees are going to sway.
There will be days when
all you can do is pray.
That's just the way it goes.
Sometimes you will succeed
only to be held back again.
Some days you will feel burdened
by tribulations and sin.
Some days you'll have the strength
to face whatever comes your way.
Other days all you can do
is bow your head and pray.
That's just the way it goes.
Be thankful for the sun.
It always feels so nice.
But when it starts to rain,
understand that this is
the temporary life.
Trials come along
causing us dismay.
Never forget who listens
when you begin to pray.
That's just the way it goes.
