Don't Give Up

The air is brisk
The sun is shining
So there is no need for whining.
For it is in His plan
That we withstand
All the obstacles in our way
Just to get through the day.
He never gives us more than we can take
And He doesn’t want us to fake
So remain true
To me and you.
He shall see us all through
Whatever challenges we may hit.
Doesn’t mean a thing—
For it’s the mere experiences
That we face in our lives
That makes us grow
Strong or meek
Smart or weak.
It doesn’t matter
He basically says,
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
And I know to grasp that it is rough
And to live in this world can be tough,
But most of all don’t give up
And remain forever true to yourself
And you’ll make it!
