Perseverance
Keep right on to the end of the road,
Keep right on to the end
Though your way be long
Let your heart be strong
Keep right on round the bend.
Though you’re tired and weary still journey on
Till you come to your happy abode
Where all you love, you’ve been dreaming of
Will be there at the end of the road!
It’s sometimes very difficult for us to carry on
When we receive a setback our motivation’s gone!
It really doesn’t take a lot to put us off our game
Then we feel like quitting, to our own eternal shame.
We do not like to volunteer for any weekly chore
Cos next week we may not want to do it any more!
Doing things for days on end we do not think is fun
We tend to call it boring and simply want to run!
Perseverance is a word that we don’t emulate
We think that having freedom is really rather great.
Lord, give me the gumption deep within my heart
To keep me going to the end in everything I start.
Let me be like Joseph striding down his track
With eyes set forward on the goal and never looking back!
