With God's help...

Somebody said that it couldn't be done, but he with a chuckle replied,
"Maybe it couldn't", but he'd be the one who wouldn't say so until he tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin and if he was worried he hid it;
And he started to sing as he tackled the thing that couldn't be done - and he did it.

Somebody scoffed, 'Oh you'll never do that, for no one has yet ever done it.'
But he took off his coat and took off his hat and trusting in God he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin, if any doubt rose he'd forbid it;
And he started to sing as he tackled the thing that couldn't be done - and he did it.

There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done and thousands just waiting to fail you;
There are thousands to point out to you one by one the dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle right in with a bit of a grin and take off your coat and go to it;
God will give you the strength to tackle the thing that cannot be done and you'll do it!
