FAILURE

 

 

I have been a failure

In this world

In every walk of life

 

But when I was down

While I was out

I learned

Through the school of hard knocks

 

I learned what is important

It’s God

I learned what is important

It’s love

I learned what’s important

It’s kindness

I learned what’s important

It’s mercy and forgiveness

 

I still go

The school of hard knocks

I know I will never graduate

Because there is no end to them

 

I did learn a few things

Along the way

But I still go to

The school of hard knocks

 

It’s a hard knock life

But I learned

A few things along the way

 

Learn what’s important

It’s a hard-knock life

Ps        For ALL of us facing overwhelming challenges

 

           “No man is a FAILURE who has friends”

            The angel Clarence to George Bailey in, “IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE”

 

And while we may be a failure by the world’s standards, we ARE NEVER

A failure with GOD-as long as we continue to try

 

“I will maintain my love to him forever

My covenant with him will NEVER FAIL”                                 Psalm 89:28

 

“But my salvation will last forever

My righteousness will NEVER FAIL”                                       Isaiah 51:6
