Don't Quit - by Dr Jack Hyles
When the cup is turned to wormwood, 
And the wormwood turns to gall;
When your walking turns to stumbling,
And the stumbling to a fall;
When you've climbed above the mountains,
Yet the Alps rise rough and tall;
DON'T QUIT.

When the path ahead is crooked,
And the road's too rough to tread;
When the best upon the table
Is replaced by sorrow's bread;
When you've crossed some trobled waters,
Yet a Marah's just ahead; (Exodus 15;16)
DON'T QUIT.

When the vultures have descended
And disturbed your downy nest;
When sweet fruit has changed to thistle,
While the thorns disturb your rest;
When a deep to deep is calling, 
And when failure seems your best;
DON'T QUIT.

When the Lord has cleansed the table;
Then He takes away the fat;
And the best wine has been taken,
Till you find an empty vat;
When another fills the throne room
Where once you proudly sat;
DON'T QUIT.

When your health is feeling sickly,
And the medicine tastes bad;
When your fellowship is lonly,
And your happiness is sad;
When your warmth is getting colder,
And in clouds your sunshine's clad;
DON'T QUIT.

When you find your wins are losses,
And that all your gains are lacks;
When ill things never come alone,
And your troubles run in packs;
When your soul is bruised and battered
From the Tempter's fierce attacks;
DON'T QUIT.

Be not weary in well doing,
For due seasons bring the grain;
He who on the Lord hath waited
Shall never run in vain;
The just man falleth seven times,
Yet riseth up again;
DON'T QUIT.
