What Faith Can Bring



Why let the days of discontent
Destroy the time you might have spent
Enjoying life with happy thoughts
Which feeling bad has never brought?

Why feel each day must be endured
And that your sadness can't be cured
When happiness is yours to find
With faith in God to ease your mind?

Life should not be a thing of pain
Or lived as though it was in vain,
But be enjoyed as God has planned
Uplifted by His loving hand!
