I Refuse To Be….

I Refuse To Be….

I refuse to be dismayed
When the world turns its back on me.

I refuse to be discouraged
When all the sources of hope
Flee away from me.

I refuse to be sad
When things don’t come
The way I wish they would

I refuse to die
When love, hope or faith
Tries to betray me
For I have a person who died for me
Always there on my side.
