What will the future hold?
How will I be rewarded?
Have I the right to riches?
In a world where there are no prizes!
Who makes the clock tick by?
When will my fate be ready?
Do I get prior warning?
Am I told? are there no surprises!

I have to count my blessings
I have to learn my lessons
My fate is in the balance
I must go on believing!
