Love Your Neighbor

Love Your Neighbor


Jesus said it best but many of us disagree his humble plea
 Shades of red, white & blue but nothing knew
 It used to be customary to hold open then door but I guess that's too Studio 64
 In times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me speaking words of wisdom,

 Learn to love like ever before lest I simply implore
 The turning of the tide yet we want to run away & hide
 To hide behind the false hidden garb of compromise no surprise
 Let us dig deeper then ever before to shower the people with love

 This kind was crafted & created from heaven up above
 Love your neighbor as you would yourself
 There's no use in putting that book back on it's shelf
 Many hide behind a mask cause their to afraid to reveal their true selves

 Thank the good Lord from above with his love
 As a brightened rainbow with filtered colors of rich red, yellow & blue
 High above the sky we all whisper it's nothing knew
 Shelter lies dormant amidst it's beckoning plow

 As a beacon of light to a much hurting world in need
 Many outside having viscous fangs that bite watch as you bleed
 Sullen promise made in the dark have now come to it's fullest of light
 Wave your banners high for all to see & light the flame to sweet victory !
