Trouble and stress don't seem to end

they just won't go away

The nightmares dreamed in darkness

still last into the day

While helplessness and hopelessness

will stay and linger on

And distant days of happiness

are withered and long gone

But HOPE will heal the wounded

for the shadows never last

Just TRUST in SPIRIT'S promise

and soon, this too shall pass!
