"agape, Bliss"
As chewing gum loses flavor
Stuck on the bedpost over night
As stale a romance not savored
`Tis soon moved out of one’s own sight
One's life falls into the decayed
Through carnal mind's flip and floppy
Agape's attention not paid
Through mind Agape grows sloppy
As one's life became such a flop
Chaos to your yen and your yang
To flip and flop never a stop
Turning you into a wild thing
Carnal mind has been wilderness
The wilderness of this child's wild
Without which the world would be bliss
Let Agape kiss the wild child
The eternal Agape bliss
As one lives life will surely learn
Those of the world have surely missed
`Tis mind's hell in the earth will burn
Agape desires abundant bless
The mind desires to be judge
Love desires to be holy guest
In works mind will always fudge
Agape true to life system
And holds the abundant supply
As carnal tries to resist Him
`Tis humanity's flesh will cry
