Never Give Up Poem

1. You're On Your Way
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   When the winds of fate blow fierce,
   And darkness veils the path ahead,
   Hold on to hope with steadfast belief,
   Never surrender, never give up.
   
   In the face of adverse consequences,
   When failure knocks on your door,
   Summon the strength that lies within,
   Never surrender, never give up.
   
   When success feels elusive, out of reach,
   And dreams crumble like fragile sand,
   Dust off the remnants of shattered hopes,
   Never give up, because you're on the way up.




2. If You Give Up
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, ©2020
   
   If you give up what will that achieve?
   Will you feel like you've met your needs?
   Giving up can make you feel
   Worse than losing a deal.
   
   Do you give in when things get hard
   Throw up your hands with no regard
   Giving up on your dreams
   No longer moving forward with any steam.
   
   When things get difficult for you
   Do you accept defeat too?
   Throw in the towel and say
   No more, I have had it for the day.
   
   But when you never give up
   You find solutions popping up
   Yes you may have to walk away
   But only for one day.
   
   Sometimes taking a break
   Is a good thing for your sake
   When faced with a challenging task
   Find others who can help, just ask
   
   When you never give up you will find
   A success that is like any other kind
   If everything was easy and quick to do
   There would be no satisfaction for you.
   
   You see, in life, we all must face
   Times when we feel we are in the wrong place
   But we never give up and accept defeat
   For you will find determination is sweet!

3. Never Surrender
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   Tread the path less traveled, my friend,
   For it leads to greatness untold,
   Though setbacks may plague your journey,
   Never surrender, never give up.
   
   When dreams seem mere illusions,
   And failure paints a bitter hue,
   Embrace resilience, let your spirit soar,
   Never surrender, never give up.
   
   When loved ones falter in their support,
   Their words a dagger to your heart,
   Remember your worth, your potential untapped,
   Never surrender, never give up.




4. Where There's A Will There's A Way
   Poet: David V. Bush
   
   "Where there's a will, there is a way!"
   Never give up the ship;
   There's land ahead and "ivory bed"
   To each stiff upper lip.
   
   You may not see which way to turn,
   But still there is a way.
   Where's there's a will keep at it still
   You'll reap success some day.
   
   If you can't see, still there's a way;
   A way with every will;
   You may not know which way to go,
   But you will climb the hill.
   
   Don't waver, man, there is a way
   If you but have the will;
   So plug along, with heart and song,
   Success comes but by drill.




Poems On Determination



5. Ignite Your Spirit
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   In the face of stormy skies,
   When thunder rolls and lightning strikes,
   Anchor your resolve, hold fast,
   Never give up.
   
   When the world turns its back on you,
   And trust becomes a distant memory,

6. Just Keep On
   Poet: Clifton Abbott
   
   Just keep on a-livin'
   An' keep on a-givin',
   An' keep on a-tryin' to smile;
   Just keep on a-singin'
   A-trustin' an' a-clingin'
   To the promise of an afterwhile.
   For the sun comes up
   An' the sun goes down,
   An' the morning follows night.
   There's a place to rest
   Like a mother's breast,
   An' a time when things come right.
   
   Just keep on believin'
   An' a-hidin' all your grievin'.
   An' keep on a-tryin' to cheer.
   Just keep on a-prayin'
   A-lovin' an' a-sayin'
   The things that we love to hear.
   For the tide comes in
   An' the tide goes out.
   An' the dark will all turn bright;
   There's a rest from the load
   An' an end to the road.
   An' a place where things come right.




Keep Going Poems



7. Persist, When The ....
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   When the weight of the world rests upon your shoulders,
   And hope dwindles like a flickering flame,
   Summon the courage to carry on,
   Persist always, don't yield or give in.
   
   When the journey feels endless, never-ending,
   And the road ahead is paved with thorns,
   Step forward with unwavering determination,
   Persist always, don't yield or give in.
   
   When bonds with family and friends strain,
   And misunderstandings breed resentment,
   Nurture love, mend the cracks that appear,
   Persist always, don't yield or give in.
   
   For in the face of adversity, my dear,
   Lies the strength to rise again,
   Embrace the challenges, overcome the hurdles,
   Persist always, don't yield or give in.




8. Every Day and in this Moment
   Poet: John F. Zurn
   
   When your problems drag you down,
   And you live in fear and doubt,
   While you think the distant crowd
   Has the whole thing figured out:
   
   Though you’re worried and upset,
   Think of God and do your best.
   If the world has passed you by
   Even though you’ve really tried;
   
   And you’re sleepless late at night
   Because nothing turns out right:
   Know that God counts every sparrow
   And He’ll be here for tomorrow.
   
   When you’re tired and confused,
   God’s love will see you through,
   And no matter what you do,
   Know God’s spirit lives in you:
   
   Every day and in this moment,
   You are loved; you are important.
   When you’re ready to give up,
   Think of God and that’s enough.




Christian Poems



9. Press On
   Poet: Bernhart Paul Holst
   
   My Child, press on! you cannot fail
   To climb the crest of mountain high.
   With faith the break of morning hail —
   Unfurl your banner to the sky;
   Who starts aright with zeal and zest.
   With mind and heart in full control,
   And always tries to do the best.
   Will never fail to reach the goal.
   
   My Youth, press on! surmount the steeps,
   Though they be rocky all the way;
   He fails who feebly crawls and creeps,
   Who stands up bravely wins the day.
   A star of hope gives aid and cheer
   To those who look and press ahead,
   And makes success seem very near
   As on to fortune we are led.
   
   My Friend, press on! with kind regard
   For all the friends that wish you well.
   And let the fruits of your reward
   O'er all your life cast their sweet spell;
   Sweet are the friends who give us cheer,
   Who grasp our hand and speak kind words,
   Their aid and comfort are more dear
   Than music grand or songs of birds.
   
   My Love, press on! and love thou me
   With an affection staid and pure,
   For I your truest love will be
   As long as my life shall endure;
   Since love is life and life is love
   And bliss comes only to the true,
   Let us declare, by heaven above,
   You live for me, I live for you.
   
   Old Age, press on! let courage now,
   With steadfast stride and strengthened soul,
   Give tone to life though head may bow,
   And keep the faith that wins the goal;
   Be true to self, be true to man,
   Be true to God in joy and tears,
   And if you do the best you can,
   You'll win the goal in spite of fears.




Never Give Up Quotes



10. Keep Your Grit
    Poet: Louis E. Thayer
    
    Hang on! Cling on! No matter what they say,
    Push on! Sing on! Things will come your way.
    Sitting down and whining never help a bit -
    Best way to get there is by keeping up your Grit.
    
    Don't give up hoping when the ship goes down;
    Grab a spar or something, just refuse to drown.
    Don't think you're dying just because you're hit;
    Smile in face of danger and hang on to your Grit.
    
    Folks die too easy, they sort o' fade away;
    Make a little error and give up in dismay;
    Kind o' man that's needed is the man of ready wit
    To laugh at pain and loss and keep fast hold his Grit.




Poems about Hope



11. Never Give Up!
    Poet: Martin Farquhar Tupper
    
    Never give up! It is wiser and better
    Always to hope than once to despair;
    Fling off the load of doubt’s heavy fetter,
    And break the dark spell of tyrannical care.
    Never give up! or the burden may sink you—
    Providence kindly has mingled the cup,
    And in all trials or troubles, bethink you,
    The watchword of life must be, Never give up!
    
    Never give up! there are chances and changes
    Helping the hopeful a hundred to one;
    And through the chaos High Wisdom arranges
    Ever success - if you'll only hope on:
    Never give up! for the wisest is boldest,
    Knowing that Providence mingles the cup,
    And of all maxims the best is the oldest,
    Is the true watchword of Never give up!
    
    Never give up! - though the grape-shot may rattle,
    Or the full thunder-cloud over you burst,
    Stand like a rock - and the storm or the battle
    Little shall harm you, though doing their worst.
    Never give up! If adversity presses,
    Providence wisely has mingled the cup,
    And the best counsel in all your distresses
    Is the stout watchword of - Never give up!




Bible Verses about Never Giving Up



12. Never Let Go
    Poet: Folger McKinsey
    
    Oh, do not let go and do not give up
    And do not let down it is wrong!
    There is always a chance of your winning the cup,
    There is always the need of a song.
    Never let go, but cling to the end,
    And never let down - lift your eyes
    To the hopes that still over us lovingly bend,
    To the light that is filling the skies!
    
    What odds that the struggle is bitter and black,
    That the striving has seemed all in vain;
    Never let go and go tumbling back,
    There's a chance for us all once again.
    No matter how weary, how troubled and worn,
    How futile the struggle may seem,
    There is always a bit of good luck in the morn,
    There is always a light in the dream!
    
    Oh, do not let go take another firm hold,
    And never go down if you can:
    Life's prizes are sweet, but there's far better gold
    In the spirit of being a man.
    So stick to the struggle, and trust, and dig on;
    There's a chance for you yet, you will see:
    The blackest of nights brings the glow of the dawn
    And the luck that may set us all free.

14. Take Your Troubles
    Poet: Edgar A. Guest
    
    Take your troubles
    Best you can.
