Love
My heart raced when I heard
I couldn’t hold my peace when I saw
When I handled the reality of Love
I doubt if the Church does the same
Pity the world of her pathetic state
Pity the Church sleeping as the day passes
If the world be ignorant of Love, be surprised not
The Church got employed to show her
But, her teacher, learn not the excellent way
I have been at Babylon’s heart
Now, my feet tread on Jerusalem holy cliff
I’m new, delivered from sinner’s ways
If I were blindly led by Night
Babylon and Jerusalem proved no difference
Hear oh! Beloved, thy Lord’s burden
Thy Lord’s Love, He acted this very fact
Read the film between the scripture’s lines
He loveth even His foes
Even he that betrayed with a kiss
Why hate thee thy friends
And thy foes becomes thy sweet heart
Hatred rear-up amidst thy fellowship light
God’s hands retreat into his belly
Dimness might rule thy Noon time
For we haven’t so learned Christ
Who prayed for us not the world?
That we might be one, He prayed
Indomitably tearing down the pillars of hell
That his kingdom might occupy indeed
The enemy nearly lost the game
But got the reason for the strength
They are one, bond by love
They can’t be won
Let us play wisely again
Divide their heart with a subtle sword
Turn their spears against their oath
That they might forgat our end
Lest our trouble persist and our strength
Like a cold cinder drifted with the wind
Yet brethren we haven’t known love
Thus, let us toward God repent of the wounds
The body of Christ suffers from us again
That healings, might swiftly arrive
In love made perfect and unity made strong
Yet, we haven’t met Love
Although we safety assume we have
