As you go along through life’s busy hours,
Pause now and then just smell the flowers.
If the road gets rough, or the climb gets steep.
Pause and rest a while, perhaps take a wee sleep.
Don’t stop too long. Do seize the day
For good things will come along the way.
Don’t tarry, or think there’s not good to be found
The good is out there, just look around.
For in moving forward, the scenery changes,
The next opportunity may be o’er those mountain ranges.
Your experience you will always pack along side you.
The courage to move upward, will take you to the next view.
For on this road of life, remember it is true:
Love lifts you up and God will provide.
But only you can git up off your hide.
You got it in you. Don’t doubt your ability.
Gather your friends and show off your mobility.
You may have to walk, drag your ass through the mud,
You may scrape your knees, just wipe off the blood.
Keep going my friend. The summit is worth it.
The climb makes the conquer of trials so sweet.
When you look from the top, down that trail that you beat,
The boulders, the briars, the swamp, and the heat.
Rejoice, sing out loud, bang your drum, do a dance
You did it! Kept faith, and look you are thriving!
Now hold out your hand to the next girl in line,
To reassure her that all will be fine.
