5828. I shall not accept defeat

```

My Supreme Lord,

I shall not accept any defeat,

Not because my ego-life

Cannot accept defeat,

But because Your transcendental Will

Does not want me ever to accept defeat on earth.

It is Your Will that You are executing

In and through me,

Your dauntless instrument.

```
