Divisions, difference, distinctions
to separate, not of God’s hands, human barriers
invisible walls, of race, gender, of color, of culture
distinctions, difference, unknown, unseen by God
artificial walls, divides to be crossed, ignored
God sees us differently, the same, all of us unworthy
all of us sinners, unclean, separated from him
All reconciled by our savior, by the sacrifice
by grace alone are we made one, with our brother
with our creator, one, equal one to another
all worthy of grace, undeserving as we all
all brought into the kingdom, all who say yes
who accept God’s gift
and change our ways
to live as our brother,
spreading his father’s love
