Love Liberates – v2


Within the words of scripture
the Sermon on the Mount
words of power, that love liberates;
Loosing the bonds of hate
of the cost of division on the soul
freeing the oppressed
from the power over them;
letting them love unconditionally
Drawing nearer to the Master
hearing his call,
uncluttered, unburdened
without trouble at all
