No Thin Line Between Real Love and Hate

I drank of true love today In it's pure undiluted state, And all that I once thought was love I now revile and hate. The glow and glory of real love Can best be felt and seen In him in whom it first began; Our god, our lord, our king. The greatest love was his to give A potent product of his word; Thus when he speaks all things obey To testify that he is heard. Because he let me drink of it I know I'll never be the same. I sense it strongest in his word So in his word I will remain A willing handmaid of his love; A maid-in-waiting for his return. “Come quickly, lover of my soul, And teach me love. I long to learn”.
