~Hang In There~ 
Difficulties arise 
in the lives of us all. 
What is most important 
 is dealing with the hard times, 
coping with the changes,  
and getting through to the 
other side where the sun  
is still shining just for you... 
 
It takes a
strong person 
to deal with tough times 
and difficult choices. 
But you are a strong person. 
It takes courage 
to see you through. 
 It takes being an active participant 
in your life. But you are in the 
driver's seat, and you can determine 
the direction you want 
tomorrow to go in. 
 
Hang in there... 
and  take care to see 
 that you don't lose sight 
 of the one thing that is 
constant, beautiful, and true: 
Everything will be fine ~ 
and it will turn out 
that way because of the 
special kind of person 
you are. 
 
So... beginning today and 
lasting a lifetime through ~ 
Hang in there, 
and don't be afraid 
to feel like the morning 
sun is shining... 
just for you.

~DON'T QUIT~ 
When things go wrong,  
as they sometimes will, 
When the road you're trudging 
 seems all uphill, 
Keep your spirits high 
for through thick and thin, 
You must carry on 
if you are to win. 
 
Life is strange with 
its twists and turns. 
As everyone of us 
sometimes learns. 
It challenges us 
to often give up 
When we could have 
captured the victor's cup. 
 
So turn your failures inside out, 
Press them on past 
fear and doubt. 
Never mind if things 
 hold you back a bit. 
You'll come out on top  
~ but you mustn't quit. 
 
 
You raise me up 
by Josh Groban 
 
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary 
When troubles come and my heart burdened be 
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence 
Until you come and sit awhile with me. 
 
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains 
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas 
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders 
You raise me up: To more than I can be. 
 
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains 
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas 
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders 
You raise me up: To more than I can be. 
 
There is no life - no life without its hunger 
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly 
But when you come and I am filled with wonder 
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity. 
 
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains 
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas 
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders 
You raise me up: To more than I can be. 
 
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains 
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas 
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders 
You raise me up: To more than I can be.
