There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 1st John 4:18
The tragedy of perfect love denied
It is a broken people with pointless
pride
Where lies spit from their mouths
And the truth of love is despised
The selfishness of humanity
destroys our compassion
Of a greedy people who buy into
deception
Where lust and pleasure burn hearts
into dust
And we lead ourselves to a path
of destruction
The spirit of the affluent always wants
more
Of goods that could give help to
the poor
Where women and children starve on
the streets
Yet the wealthy own more than ever
before
The absence of grace is the death
of hope
Of the law that slides down a
slippery slope
Where justice on its own cannot
stand
And humanity finds fear at the end of its
rope
