facing obstacles (two poems by tom krause)
the heart of the strong
strong is the heart that knows not the way
of comfort and ease while living each day.
yet continues to believe from the depths of its soul
that the future is destined to silver and gold.

strong is the heart whose yearning is waned
by storms in life filled with heartache and pain.
yet still gives its all—everything that it can
in search of a dream—god"s ultimate plan.

when there is a victory—when battles are won
when burdens are lifted and bright shines the sun—
when struggling souls gather—where heroes belong—
they find in themselves—the heart of the strong.
carry on
at times when you feel troubled
when your happiness is gone
look to the heart within you
for the strength to carry on.

in your heart you will find special virtues
such as faith and hope and love.
these gifts have been sent down to you
from a power up above.

it is faith that keeps the soul searching
for the joy the heart hopes for.
it is love that heals the spirit
making it stronger than before.

and if your heart be broken
if your strength should fade away
the power of these virtues12345
will still win out the day.

so remember when you are troubled
when your happiness is gone
look to the heart within you
for the strength to carry on.
