Notes About The Poem

GIVING GOD’S WILL SOME THOUGHT 

 

Of death, do not fear;

No one will live forever:

Only spirits will:-

While our death is preordained,

So is eternal spirit:-

 

Holy is God’s will. 

Though our bodies will pass on, 

Our spirits will not.

Let it be our will to live

In fearless labors of love:-

 

Seek to live God’s will:

A life of love and justice;

Fighting injustice:-

Where love abides, injustice 

Will never ever have life:-

 

You can’t live in love,

If you support injustice

With a weird free will:-

Attempting such, will leave here, 

A spirit that’s not wanted:-

GIVING GOD'S WILL SOME THOUGHT

GIVING GOD’S WILL SOME THOUGHT 

Of death, do not fear;
No one will live forever:
Only spirits will:-
While our death is preordained,
So is eternal spirit:-

Holy is God’s will. 
Though our bodies will pass on, 
Our spirits will not.
Let it be our will to live
In fearless labors of love:-

Seek to live God’s will:
A life of love and justice;
Fighting injustice:-
Where love abides, injustice 
Will never ever have life:-

You can’t live in love,
If you support injustice
With a weird free will:-
Attempting such, will leave here, 
A spirit that’s not wanted:-
