Andrea Dietrich Poet Triolet

Saints and Sinners - Sinners and Saints

The path to take for all is shown -

saints and sinners; sinners and saints.

God loves us, for we are His own.

The path to take for all is shown.

Since days of old, the truth’s been known.

Though all that’s good the darkness taints,

the path to take for all is shown -

saints and sinners; sinners and saints.
