Discipline

Discipline, discipline, discipline,

Discipline!

Discipline is my faithfulness

To my struggling body.

Discipline is my faithfulness

To my dynamic vital.

Discipline is my faithfulness

To my searching mind.

Discipline is my faithfulness

To my crying heart.

Discipline is my faithfulness

To my dreaming soul.

Discipline is my faithfulness

To my loving, blessing and fulfilling Lord

Supreme.

My discipline is an opportunity-seed.

My discipline is a preparation-plant.

My discipline is a manifestation-tree.

When my entire life becomes

A discipline-boat,

My Lord comes to me and says:

"My child, I am your Perfection-Boatman

And I will be sailing you

To My Satisfaction-Shore."
