The GOSPEL TRUTH

ANYWAY

 

People are often unreasonable,

Illogical, and self-centered;

Forgive them anyway.

 

If you are kind,

People may accuse you of selfish,

ulterior motives;

Be kind anyway.

 

If you are successful,

You will win some false friends

and some true enemies;

Succeed anyway.

 

If you are honest and frank,

People may cheat you;

Be honest and frank anyway.

 

What you spend years building,

Someone could destroy overnight;

Build anyway.

 

If you find serenity and happiness,

They may be jealous;

Be happy anyway.

 

The good you do today,

People will often forget tomorrow;

Do good anyway.

 

Give the world the best you have,

And it may never be enough;

Give the world the best you've got anyway.

 

You see, in the final analysis,

It is between you and God;

 

It never was between you and them, anyway.
