Notes About The Poem

- His Mercy -

Words are bound in chains
                            the true creative spirit
                            In the ruins of the lost
                            pathetic struggle
                            Where will you stand the last night
                            His mercy, you overlook

                            See how great love is
                            in the spite of our mistakes
                            Difficult to understand
                            Father "in heaven"
                            His love is unwavering
                            Adam and Eve were tempted

                            Faith can move mountains
                            With holy awe, never doubt
                            Heaven and eternity
                            Walk the golden stairs,
                            and believe in God's promise
                            Love is absolute patience

                            Anger and hatred
                            We should love - by heart and soul
                            Out of love comes the power
                            The message of death
                            Love your brother and sister
                            Earth's children - let's live in peace
