The world is like a mirror
Reflecting back to you
Whatever you have given it,
Whatever is your view…

So if your thoughts are happy
And a smile is in your face,
You’ll find the world is beautiful,
A warm and happy lace…

So always keep your spirits up
And hope for what is best,
Look for the good in everyone
And see what’s happiest…

For when there’s sunshine in your heart
And faith in you’ll do,
That world can’t help returning
That sunny joy to you.

Faith brightens our lives
In a magical way
Bringing quiet and peace
To a troubled day.

Faith is believing
That after the rain
Birds will be singing
In sunshine again.

Faith let us know
That the darkness of night
Is followed each morning
By dawn’s glowing light.

So if you should feel
That you’re troubled by strife
Remember that faith
Is the best way of life.

Often the struggle has given up
When he might have captured
The victor’s cup;
And he learned to late

When the night came down,
How close he was
To the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out—

The silver tints of the clouds of doubt;
And you never can tell
How close you are
It may be near when it seems afar.

So stick to the fight
When you’re hardest hit—
It’s when things are really worst
That you must not quit!

If the heart is the place
Where love comes from,
Then, where does it go
When it dies?
Back to the heart where
It came from? Or
Turn into tears in the eyes?

But even if one knew
The answer
What would one
Possibly gain/
Would the knowledge of
Where love has gone through,
Ease the heartaches, the sorrow,
And the pain?

Why is it one cannot
Quite realize
What a blessing this
True love can be.
Must one lost love
To know the priceless?
Must one be blind before
One can see?

Ah! Where does love go
When it leaves us?
This question will
Always remain,
For we will never know
The answer…
Until we find love
Once again!

The birds may stop their soulful singing,
The phantom breeze may cease to sigh,
The flowers sweet may lose their fragrance,
But love can never die.

The powerful sun may cease to sparkle,
And all the stars on high
May cease to beam, may cease to twinkle,
Yet love can never die.

Love dwells in ev’ry soul forsaken,
The essence of our God on high,
The weary hearts by it are lightened-
O! Love can never die.

Forget about the days when it’s been cloudy,
But don’t forget your hours in the SUN.
Forget about the times you’ve been defeated
But don’t forget
the VICTORIES you’ve won…

Forget about mistakes
That you can’t change now,
But don’t forget
the LESSONS you’ve LEARNED…

Forget about misfortunes
You’ve encountered,
But don’t forget
the times your LUCK has turned…

Forget about the days
when you’ve been lonely,
but don’t forget
the friendly SMILES you’ve seen…

forget about the PLANS
that didn’t seem
to work out right,
but don’t forget to
ALWAYS HAVE A DREAM!
