I pray before I lift, I meditate while I lift, I offer my gratitude-cries and gratitude-smiles

August 8

```

My Lord Supreme,

My Beloved Supreme,

My gratitude-life is now helping me

Reclaim my aspiration of the hoary past

When at every moment

I lived only for You, only for You —

Only to love You and serve You

In the heart of mankind. ```

From:Sri Chinmoy,I pray before I lift, I meditate while I lift, I offer my gratitude-cries and gratitude-smiles, Agni Press, 1986
