A Battle of Living – v2

Our ways of living, at odds,
opposed to one another;
no compromise, no living together.
We are free; but we must choose
One way to the cross;
one way to the grave.
One way to love;
one way to greed and hate.
One way to grace, to love;
one way to condemnation of the law.
One way of hope;
one way of despair.
Free to choose, one and all
to follow the Master
or our own will.
No compromise,
no living together;
our fate in our choice.
