The Most Powerful

The Most Powerful
I have often wondered what it was
And today it all became so clear
So I knelt down and said a prayer
Because the revelation caused a tear

I’ve heard it here and there a lot
Over all my many years on earth
And I wonder how many times untrue
I’ve heard it since the days of my birth

I know there are many died in vain
Because the use of it so easily done
And no care taken for it hither or yon 
Except the destruction it left on the chosen one

Who knows the meaning more than God? 
He gave up his only son from above
To die on the cross for the sins of the world
For the most powerful word in the world…..love.

Just read it in the holy word
It is written out plain as can be
“For God so loved the world….”
And it is talking about you and me.
