TO WHOM ALL PRAISES ARE DUE
TO WHOM ALL PRAISES ARE DUE
It is easier to congratulate than it is to emulate; that is why so many do it.
Emulation requires energy and drive. Congratulations just a simple "high five." That is why so many do it.
Giving credit where it is due is a wonderful trait; equally honorable is you fulfilling your fate.
Different gifts and talents are given to men; be they alien, family or friend.
Discover your gift and perfect it; then others will praise you, so expect it.
And when your plaudits come, deflect each single one; to God to whom all praises are due; to God to whom all praises are due.
