Never take life for granted
Whatever comes your way,
Just grasp it in both hands
And enjoy it every day.

Sometimes sorrow comes your way
Blocking out the light,
That's the time to pray and
To know you'll win the fight.

Life is but a journey
Through mountains, hills and vales
We cannot have the sunshine
If we have no rain and gales.

So enjoy each precious moment,
And always give your best
Remember keep faith in God
Then you'll be truly blessed.
