Human walls,
fencing in the boundaries
limiting God love,
His people, by whatever measure
these will not
last, have been torn asunder
in these words of
God’s love
For the divisions
that served to define us
as the ones to
receive the gift
Have been turned
to dust and forgotten
by the cost of our
Savior’s blood
He has fought for
our lives and has won
for us eternal
life, for all, the Jew and the Gentile,
no one to be left
out, outside His love.
And we bow in
prayer before Him
looking forward to
our new life
together with Christ
in heaven
at the end of this
life.
