In love with fear

By Kimberly Knigt / Sophianne
 +
Oh Lord
 +
We are a culture
 +
In love with fear
 +
And afraid of love
 +
Be not afraid, you call
 +
Many of the same souls
 +
Who shout
 +
With closed minds
 +
And plugged ears
 +
That the government
 +
Shall not have any role
 +
In regulating
 +
Weapons
 +
Be afraid, they say
 +
Are the same souls
 +
Who demand
 +
With closed hearts
 +
And clenched fists
 +
That the government
 +
Shall have the ultimate role
 +
In regulating
 +
Love
 +
Be very afraid, they say
 +
For without our guns
 +
To defend our lives
 +
And without our bibles
 +
To defend our prejudices
 +
Surely we shall perish
 +
Be not afraid, you beckon
 +
Oh Lord
 +
Free us from fear
 +
That leads only to death
 +
And open us to  love
 +
That leads to abundant life
 +
Amen
