WORRY

Copyright 1890. by Edgar A. GuestD
There are various kinds OF worry and know

We should break the worry habit and put all
our fears away
'Tis a fool who worries vainly over things he
cannot mend
or spoils the JOY OF pleasure by the dread
that II will end,
But there comes to every fellow on this planet
called the earth
Times he really ought to worry II he wants
TO prove his worth.

through the day.
Does he worry for his safety does he worry

Does he worry FOR his future and the burdens

Does the big fear ever strike him, as he

That in some way as his parent. he may
not be doing right?
Man cannot escape from worry. cannot smile
at self disgrace

he ought TO face;
by his moral obligations TO be Just and clean
