Story Behind The Song
After three years of grief and a struggle to find the positive, I have found an inner peace from which this song arose. It is also a song of hope for others who are struggling.

Lyrics
THINGS TURN OUT ALL RIGHT IN THE END
Words and Music by Mary Cole Grimley.
Intro
Things turn out all right in the end.
Never bend, I tell you, Never bend.
Verse 1
You may work double time but you can't get ahead.
There is so much to say but you don't say a word.
And the silence at home is the silence of dread.
Pre-Chorus
But a voice in your mind and the heart in your head tells you:
Don't give up now. Don't give up now be-cause
Chorus
Things turn out all right in the end.
Life may try to break you. Just don't bend.
I say, things turn out all right in the end.
Never bend, I tell you, Never bend.
Verse 2
Now the stock market's crashed and you're laid off from work.
There's no cash for your child or the mortgage or food.
And the sadness at home is the sadness of guilt.
Pre-Chorus
But a voice in your mind and the heart in your head tells you:
Don't give up now. Don't give up now be-cause
Chorus
Bridge
Yes, I know I know you've earned the right to cry. But you are strong. You'll get by. You'll get by
because
Chorus
Outro
Never bend! Never bend! Never bend. Never bend.
( possible vox 2: Never ever ever ever bend! )
