Hope in Adversity

Hope and Positivity Poem

Never go gloomy, man with a mind,

Hope is a better companion than fear;

Providence, ever benignant and kind,

Gives with a smile what you take with a tear;

All will be right, Look to the light.

Morning was ever the daughter of night;

All that was black will be all that is bright,

Cheerily, cheerily, then cheer up.

Many a foe is a friend in disguise,

Many a trouble a blessing most true,

Helping the heart to be happy and wise,

With love ever precious and joys ever new.

Stand in the van, Strike like a man!

This is the bravest and cleverest plan;

Trusting in God while you do what you can.

Cheerily, cheerily, then cheer up.

~ George Parker N.D.
