Laugh or Cry

Do I laugh now, or do I cry?

Let me not ask the question why.

All for a reason, a reason for all.

To make one's character mighty and tall.

We rejoice in our sufferings,

for it works patience in our hearts.

This patience forms character and experience,

then comes the next part.

Hope...

And it is hope that will never leave us

disappointed or dismayed.

To You I'll handover all tormenting, frustrating times,

and grow in Your presense, oh Hope Divine.
