I've dreamed many a dream that's never come true
I've seen them varnish at dawn
But enough of my dreams have come true
To make me keep dreaming on

I've prayed many a prayer that seemed no answers would come
Though I'd waited so patient & long
But enough answers have come to my Prayers
To make me keep Praying on

I've sown many a seed that's fallen by the wayside
For the birds to feed upon
But I've held enough golden sheaves in my hands
To make me keep sowing on

I've trusted many a friend that's failed me
And left me to weep alone
But enough of my friends have been true-blue
To make me keep trusting on

I've drained the cup of disappointment and pain
And gone many a day without song
But l've sipped enough nectar from the Roses of life
To make me want to live on.
