When All of Your Troubles!

When all of your troubles are troubles indeed,
When all of your troubles appear;
Remember the good times; I’m sure it can help
To make the worst of them disappear.

When all of your troubles are troubles suppressed;
When all of your troubles arise;
Remember to look quite closely at them,
Somehow it helps you survive!

When all of your troubles are troubles around;
When all of your troubles prevail:
Remember not to be overtaken by them,
Even when you turn quite pale!

When all of your troubles are troubles amassed;
When all of your troubles betray:
Remember that those who have done this to you,
In the end they will all have to pay.

When all of your troubles are troubles now cured,
When all of your troubles abate:
Remember again it was YOU saved the day,
Before it became too late!
