"strength"

I wrote this for a friend recently who was in a bad place, it's amazing what a few simple 
words can do to lift someones spirits......


Be strong…

When nothing seems right
And all else fails
Keep faith in your heart
And the wind in your sails

Be strong…

When the world gets you down
Do not despair
For always beside you
An angel with care

Be strong…

When you feel lost
Like life isn’t fair
Lift yourself up
Say a little prayer

Be strong…

When time seems to stop
Set aside all fear
All will come to pass
Soon you’ll see clear

Be strong…

When sad and afraid
Way far from home
Look to the sky 
For you are never alone

Be strong…

As strong as can be
All will be right
Remember the end of the tunnel
Has always a shining bright light
