240506 Do Your Best

 

Do Your Best

Do your best; give it your all 

Even if you trip and fall 

Do your best and follow through 

Work as if it depends on you 

Do your best, yes, stick it out 

You can do it without doubt 

Even when the going's rough 

Do your best, for that's enough 

Do your best, don't easily quit 

When road gets bumpy, just a bit 

Don't let the bumps discourage you 

They're something we must all go through 

Do your best, but even so

It must be learned when to let go 

Important to find balance, too 

Not everything IS up to you 

Some battles are not yours to own 

Or can't be fought by you alone 

Yes, do your best, but it's okay 

To ask for help along the way 

For wisdom comes from knowing best

When to give all and when to rest 

What role is yours and what's the Lord's 

When's best to knock on heaven's door 

For when you know your Father's there

To give you aid and strength to spare 

Then, do what He has called you to 

Because he knows what's best for you

So, do your best - all He will ask 

With every job, with every task 

Then let it go; call it a day 

You'll find contentment in that way

Then, when you lay your head to rest

Sure that today you did your best

Perfection's burden you'll release 

And you will feel His perfect peace
