Chapter 1 - "Things Will Be All Right"

I hope that something, someday soon
Comes across your way,
And shows you someday things will change
And all will be okay.
You can ignore all of your pain
And you can hide from all your fears,
Or you could release them from your soul
In the form of tears.
Sometimes things just don’t go right.
There are bumps along the way.
Life can be happy ride
Or just one long bad day.
Sometimes there are days
When all you want is just to die.
Relax! and think some happy thoughts
And remember it’s okay to cry.
Instead of looking down,
Look up for a change.
Whatever you work hard at
Is never out of range.
When you do not feel yourself
And you’re feeling kind of down,
Step out of your black cloud
And take a look around.
Count all of your blessings.
Sort out good from bad.
Put a smile on your face
And try not to get mad.
Friends can make us happy.
Friends can also make us sad.
But at least they’ll always be there for us
In good times and in bad.
Life is what you make it.
Great, or just plain fine.
Get out there and have some fun!
Make good use of your time.
Think of all your happiness.
Think of what makes you glad.
Think of all the better things
So you will not get sad.
Whenever you get angry
Don’t put up a fight.
Learn to calm and control yourself
And do what you know it right.
Deal with all your troubles
In a calm and gentle way.
All your hard work will soon pay off,
Sometime, real soon, someday.
Times are hard for everyone
At sometime or another.
And they won’t get any easier
Until we help one another.
The future lies ahead
And so do all your dreams.
That time that lies before us all
Is much closer than it seems.
So say a prayer to God,
Thank him for your life.
Don’t forget to ask him
To help you through your strife.
And as you fall asleep
And rest throughout the night,
Keep saying to yourself:
Things will be all right.
