BETTER TO TRY AND FAIL

Chorus:
It's better to try and fail
Than to carefully just let life pass you by.
It's better to try to no avail,
Than to sit around doing nothing till you die.

You know the people that bravely give their lives
For the causes that change the world today
Will find out that over the rainbow lies
Their reward, that their lives weren't spent in vain.

[Repeat chorus]

You know I'd rather be walking in the rain,
Than be hiding in my house on dreary days.
And I'd rather be happy though insane,
And be laughing at the world and their silly ways.

[Repeat chorus]

Just go ahead and try to change black to white.
The normal people, well, they never even try.
Just reach out by faith and really fight.
Why should you walk when in the Spirit you can fly?

[Repeat chorus]

And the im possible is something you don't know
When you're walking by faith and not by sight.
And there's nothing to stop you if you'll go,
So just stand up and hold up the light.

Second Chorus:
So I'd rather try than fail,
And we'll surely win if only we will try.
On life's sea we've just set out to sail,
And with God's help we'll make it together, you and I.
