The Key To Success

is to never rest
I must confess
wisdom is the principle thing
therefore gain wisdom and  with all thy getting gain understanding
each of us learns a lesson in this life
never to give up in your earthly strife
dig much deeper then ever before
choose to be the best you can be
have faith in your higher power by willing to achieve
mistakes in life we all go through
have bitten off far more then you can chew
but what are we to do
believe in a power greater then self
maybe want to put that book right back on the shelf
never relent to ever give up on the fight
for this is your very right
there will always be times you get knocked on your knees
