Don't Quit

Don't quit when the tide is the lowest,
For it's just about to turn;

Don't quit over doubts and questions,
For there's something you may learn.

Don't quit when the night is the darkest,
For it's just a while 'till dawn;

Don't quit when you've run the farthest,
For the race is almost won.

Don't quit when the hill is steepest,
For your goal is almost nigh;

Don't quit, for you're not failure
Until you fail to try.
