Testament

Defying hate and fear
Staving off another tear
Dry your eyes dear
Then testify truth here
Only he can hear

Above as so below I imagine
Pain, refined, a flow then
Drips life giving blood been
Weaving too much sin

God's tears fall and begin
Renewal of all men
Love, hope, compassion win

They simply embody God.
