“What must I do?”
the lawyer’s question
to earn life eternal
a seat in God’s courts
at the end of my days
The words already there
if we could achieve them
loving our God utterly
all that we are
and loving even the stranger,
our enemy, as ourselves
That tall order
for the bliss sublime
no man achieved this
that is why he came
that we would be restored
earning heaven by his sacrifice
