Marriage

My needs are fundamentally
                                         greater
than any man can provide
whatever mankind    
                                         lost in the garden
left a hollow place inside
there is only one thing
                                         that can fill it
but of that knowledge Satan lied
that our lack of love
                                         and kindness
and of truth within has died
 
one man gained
                                          the mastery
he has been appointed as our guide
 
in him lays the understanding
and where Gods wisdom
                                           does reside
If you but will submit to him
he will all things you need    provide
and all those who
                                             are loving truth
will be taking up his side
do not be using self deciet
from him your thoughts
                                            you cannot hide
everything you will ever need
to live forever
                                            he has supplied
for mankind has philosophy tested
and every government has  tried
 
broken every existing moral law
and his ingenuity has become his pride
 
but God gave us
                                                his loyal Son
who over mankind will preside
those who have overcome
                                                the ways of death
and upon his instruction have relied
 
to his embrace and to his house
he will take up as his Bride
 
Apocalypse chapters 2-3
