The Best Is Yet To Come

THE BEST IS YET TO COME!

With Childhood's pleasant memories past,
And hopes of youth gone too;
With dreams come true, or faded,
What's left for me and you?

When we see we'll never reach the top
And gain earth's wealth and fame
That filled our plans when we were young;
Shall we go on just the same?

The best is out before us yet,
Beyond this vale of tears,
It may be just a step away;
It may be many years.

But however far away it be,
The memories of the past,
And all the plans of youthful years,
Will there be far surpassed!
