Do you know that your thoughts rule your life,
Be they pure or impure in the strife?
As you think, so you are;
And you make, or you mar
Your success in the world,
By your thoughts.
Are your thoughts just and true every hour?
Then your life will attest with great power.
If it's Love fills your heart,
Then all hate must depart;
You will find all success,
In good thoughts.
Are you kind in your thoughts towards all?
Then but kindness to you must befall.
As you sow so you reap,
In a measure so deep,
Either pleasure or pain,
By your thoughts.
He that lives in sin, and looks for happiness hereafter,
is like him that soweth cockle, and thinks to fill his barn
with wheat or barley.—
