ALWAYS HOPE.
When you weary of the grind
And your heart has gone a-roaming
Down the road you've left behind,
Through the shadows and the cleaning
And you deem so little done
In the years that you've been toiling,
And so few the prizes won
That were worth one half the moiling,
Look to where the future lies,
Bright with promises. before you;
By tomorrow fairer skies.
Comrade, may be bending Ger you!
