Better To Have Lost
As Jesus steps onto the earth
Into the frost, above the dirt
Where he first walked
As all else lay to rest
Once again to proclaim his test
Turned his pain into passion
To be heard
As spoken first sacred words:
"Tis better to have lost than to
have been loved, when what hit
me twice as hard, hurt them
twice as much"
Lessons lived must be earned
Taught to forgive as the world turned
If it began with "LET THERE BE LIGHT"
Then it shall end....
WHEN WE LOSE SIGHT!
