I am proud of myself
Because I think of God every day.
God is proud of Himself
Because He thinks of me
At every moment, at each hush gap.
I am proud of myself
Because I love God only.
God says to me,
“Is it so, My child?
Is it so, My child?
I do not think so, My child.
I do not think so, My child.”
