When I was at school we kept anthologies in which we wrote and appropriately illustrated the poems we had to learn by heart. As an adult I still keep an anthology but now it contains only poems and quotations which mean something to me. I discovered the words below in the early 1980’s but, unfortunately, do not know the name of the the writer. They are perfect to remember when life gets tough and problems seem insurmountable.
“When you think how you’ve been guided,
and helped upon the way,
How fears that really terrified,
died out and passed away;
How, when you felt all hope had gone,
there came a ray of light –
And through the darkening shadow,
You could find your way alright;
When you recall that all through life,
You have been safely led –
It’s treason and weak cowardice,
to fear what lies ahead.”
