"'WHEN' AND 'LET' OF LIFE" BY PROF. EGBOWON

When people provoke me 

Let me have patience and tolerance 

When people speak ill of me 

Let me have a forgiving heart 

When people show hatred 

Let me show love 

When people are intolerant and despiteful 

Let me endure 

When all seems hard and difficult 

Let me have a praying heart

When all seems dark and gloomy

Let me have a hopeful nature 

When You shower Your blessings on me 

Let me have a grateful heart to praise You 

When the battle is over 

Let me rejoice for the victory won.
