I REJOICE IN MY LIFE BECAUSE
THE LAMP STILL GLOWS;
I SEEK NO THORNY WAYS;
I LOVE THE SMALL PLEASURES
OF LIFE.
IF THE DOORS ARE TOO LOW,
I BEND;
IF I CAN REMOVE A STONE FROM
THE PATH, I DO SO;
IF IT IS TOO HEAVY, I GO
ROUND IT.
I FIND SOMETHING IN EVERY
DAY THAT PLEASES ME.
THE CORNERSTONE, MY BELIEF
IN GOD, MAKES MY HEART GLAD
AND MY FACE SHINING.
