To appreciate your prosperity
Some adversity you must see
And often you will wonder
Just why this has to be
Why can we be patient
When things seem always bad
But when all is well with some suffering
We seem so awfully sad
So let us not be weary in well doing
Hold steadfast and not faint
Be faithful in your trust of God
He will bless you as you wait
Tribulations may work your patience
In the darkness for light you will grope
But if you experience patience
Rest assured you will experience hope
