Are You Strong Enough?

Do you feel as if today has been
     an extra trying one?
That there's no use to try anymore,
     cause nothing can be done.
Do you feel as if you've done all you know
     that there's no road left to take?
Well if you do, you're not alone,
     but don't make a grave mistake.
Always try to hold your head high,
     tell your heart your 'going on'.
You won't forget your problems today
     and in a year they still won't be gone.
But don't ever say "Life's not worth living"
     even though things are bad today.
Remember the days of laughter and joy
     could the bad be the price you pay?
So pray for the courage you need to go on,
     and then thank God you're alive,
for you can't be weak and make it through life
     are you strong enough to survive?
