Obey your earthly masters,
Regardless how it may seem;
The prophets and forecasters,
Have seen the entire scheme.
You are not told of something,
And you do not understand;
Without your part you will bring,
Sudden stop on sinking sand.
Do not obey while watched,
As if you want to please them;
They think you have been top notched,
And will not try to condemn.
Be sincere in your motive,
Respecting your real master;
Try not being deceptive,
It might become a disaster.
Whatever that you may do,
Wherever that you may go;
It is reflecting on you,
Everything that you know.
Do it all wholeheartedly,
As though you do it for God;
But complete it rapidly,
And that it has not been flawed.
Your real master is the Lord,
Whom you are always serving;
And will give you your reward,
Though you are not deserving.
Whoever does something wrong,
Always be getting paid back;
It shows weakness and not strong,
For motivation you lack.
