Sometimes when walking where you are going you do not know
\nBar that the path is there to be walked
\nOne foot in front of the other, out you go
\nThis is one journey at which not to be baulked…<\/p>\n

Each bend brings to sight a new view
\nYour bravery pays off on sight of your destination
\nLife is but a journey which me must keep passing through
\nEach session of troubles but a stopping station…<\/p>\n
