A Lesson From History

Everything's easy after it's done;
Every battle's a "cinch" that's won;
Every problem is clear that's solved--
The earth was round when it "revolved!"
But Washington stood amid grave doubt
With enemy forces camped about;
He could not know how he would fare
Till "after" he'd crossed the Delaware.

So when you're with trouble beset,
And your spirits are soaking wet,
When all the sky with clouds is black,
Don't lie down upon your back
And look at "them". Just do the thing;
Though you are choked, still try to sing.
If times are dark, believe them fair,
And you will cross the Delaware!
