Opportunity

If opportunity knocks today

Will you let it slip away?

Or will you open wide the door

To what the future has in store?

It may not come again, you know

If, this time, you let it go.

So take the chance that's given you

The chance to prove what you can do.

Start at the bottom and never stop

That's how people reach the top

They don't get there by luck or dreams

It's not as easy as it seems.

For you must work to find success

Don't give up and settle for less

Use the talents that God gave you

And He will help to see you through.

So, if opportunity knocks today

Please don't let it slip away

See it, find it, know it's true

When opportunity comes to you.
