NOT EASY
PATIENCE STRONG

It's not always easy to hold your tongue when people are unkind
It's not always easy to walk away and put it from your mind-
But quarrelling never puts things right, it seems to make things worse
And leaves you with a hornet's nest of grievances to nurse

It's not always easy to turn aside and show the other cheek
because you are afraid they'll think you are spiritless and weak
No, it's not easy but it's the only thing to do, you'll find
If you wan tto keep your friendships and your peace of mind
