Stand up and get counted

Time to stand up and get counted
When things don’t seem to go your way
When problems have on your skill doubted
Stand up tall and do not sway

When people aren’t there around you
To share your plight
Stand up afresh and new
Stand up and fight

When all you do gets a block
And you are not moving ahead
Time to turn back the clock
Stand up and get counted instead

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second throw
to make everything just right.
