Amongst all that is wrong
\nIn these present troubled days
\nWhen adults of tomorrow worries
\nAmong them, a child plays…<\/p>\n
As if God does speak to us
\nThe truth we then do know
\nThat today’s trials they will come
\nAnd our troubles they will go.<\/p>\n
We have seen a lot in our time
\nAs have our forefathers before
\nAnd in a tim to come
\nOur descendants shall see even more.<\/p>\n
Its not the trials of life that make it hard
\nNo matter how war or disaster makes it appear
\nIf you have faith in God, gods or man…
\nYou will never be conquered by fear!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
