Love Thy NeighborScripture asks us to love our neighbor.
But some think love comes without labor.
It's something we speak,
Not something we seek.

'Til you've...

Common sense has failed
Selfishness does dictate
Grab whatever you can
Right and wrong has long since gone
No brotherhood of man
Live and...

We only possess what we’re able to share
A truth that vitality allows us to see,
Were told of this being a necessary affair
Emanating from God’s second love decree. *
