weather the seasons of life with a mind
constantly focused on hope, for despair
comes tho uncalled, and depression will find
easily hearts that are riddled with care.

miracles follow when sorrows descend
seemingly seeking out woe to replace.
providence happens on which to depend
confident always in heavenly grace.

poverty, famine and war, such as try
the spirit are ever the way it shall be
these too shall pass in the blink of an eye
hold fast unto patience and truth thus to see

winter's end's followed by spring's gentle warm
like peace and tranquility after the storm
