Amazing Agape The immaculate Father Almighty Soul redeemer, merciful and mighty Wear His yoke upon you of humble heart How to live, to love it's a magic art. Do not touch what is unclean says the Lord Turn darkness to light with righteous accord Believers are sons and daughters out there God will receive into His holy care. With clean hands and a heart that's truly pure We'll stand in amazing agape for sure Ascend the mountain of heavenly grace Search with birds eye view earths beauteous place. All things wonderful are work of God's hand Could anything be as grand as His land All people on this wondrous earth that dwell Care for all that the Lord Himself made swell. A guiding light shining out there in space Embrace amazing agape with fine grace. 14th May 2021 Footnote . . . In Scripture, the transcendent agape love is the highest form of love and is contrasted with eros, or erotic love, and philia, or brotherly love.

I love this poem Belle, it is scriptural, but when we speak of Agape in Greek, we mean the human love between people, husband and wife, children and parents and so on. So Agape world wide has two sides of the coin which are used, Divine love and human love. Hugs and blessings. Jennifer.

Agape love is a new word to me, so thank you for the informative comments Jennifer. The inspiration for the poem came from Regina Mcintosh’s contest, was too late with this to enter… Bless you and hugs, Belle

Positively a truly description of God, whose love is defined in Greek as agape, a love above all love. Hugs.
