Whenever a special day dawns,
A new opportunityDawns along with it.
Every day I strive for cheerful surrender,But when a special day dawns,
My cheerful surrender has to beA living reality
And not a sweet dream.On special days I shall consciously work
Towards my complete and constant surrenderTo God’s Will,
For I know that when I do notFulfil God’s Will
Even for a minute,I unconsciously work towards
Tremendous confusion and total disasterIn my precious spiritual life.
