How To Succeed Poem by Clarence Prince

How To Succeed

Rating: 4.5


Though you may into some struggles
That is multiplying your troubles
And making your life quite uneasy
Say more like a crumbling bundle

Doubling each day your struggles
This could cause you to stumble
Plus it may lure you into… crime
While you are very weak

Owing to burdens of the week
This is when you need God's word
If you are to really succeed in life
Seek the Lord for your guide

His words you will have to speak
You mustn't just sit and weep
You mustn't turn to commit crime
Take care to resist and decline

By staying much closer to the Lord
The road to mess-up is very broad
Yet God can make you into a winner
Trust Christ daily to provides dinner

He's pleading the cause of the poor
If you are to really succeed in life
Seek the Lord for your guide
He has the key to every door

In life you may find that at times
You will have to suffer some slides
By trying to live right in His sights
Will allow the Lord to be your guide

Be ready to take every good advice
Study His words and you will live
If you are to really succeed in life
Seek the Lord for your guide

Don't go and commit a crime
Even though you haven't got a dime
The Lord will see to your struggles
Stay with the winning team

God's team is the winning team
While with Him you will abide
You will never be forsaken
Stay on the winning side

Allow God to be your guide
If you are to really succeed in life
Live your life with love and peace
Seek the Lord for your guide

Though you may into some struggles...........i think a word is missing in this line. By staying much closer to the Lord The road to mess-up is very broad..........you mean this? to me, this means being closer to God makes it easier to mess up one's life. well, i like the emphasis on resisting a moment or a life of crime. but i would be super tempted to steal if i didn't even have a dime! bri :)
