A mission
is a strange experience
It is a
trial and a test.
A mission
throws at you the worst
Yet,
teaches you the best.
I've never
been so happy,
I've never
been so depressed.
I've never
felt so forsaken,
I've never
felt so blessed.
I've never
been so confused,
Things have
never been so clear.
I've never
felt my Heavenly Father so distant,
He's never
been so near.
I've never
been so discouraged,
I've never
been so full of hope.
I feel I
could go on for forever,
I think
I've come to the end of my rope.
I've never
had it quite so easy,
I've never
had it quite so tough.
Things have
never been so smooth,
Things have
never been so rough.
I've never
traveled through more valleys,
I've never
ascended more peaks.
I've never
met so many nice people.
I've never
met so many freaks!
I've never
had so many ups,
I've never
had so many downs.
I've never
worn so many smiles,
I've never
had so many frowns.
I've never
been so lonely,
I've never
had so many friends.
BOY, I hope
this is over soon,
GOSH, I
hope this never ends.
