ORIGINS
Love has no boundaries it has no fences
not owned by religions or their pretenses
It’s source isn’t found among the nations
from the least or greatest in their stations
It’s like the winds whose circuits cover earth
to all that lives each one it gives all birth
Like the falling rain shed upon us all
every person lived hears within its call
No nation or race is it’s sole possessor
or organization it’s owner or confessor
come away come away it’s time to see
It’s habitation should be you and me
Even sinners love sinners our Lord had said
where love exists within life’s not yet dead
But his command has asked more of you all
To love your foe a brother in the fall
Loves origins existed before man
Through it’s practice master it you can
Since God is Love his preeminence is lifted
Conferred upon his children it has been gifted
His waters are a spring that quenches thirst
A cup overflowing within to be immersed
His is a power that overcomes even death
and is projected to save mans life and breath
Romans 13:8-13 (ESV)
Fulfilling the Law Through Love
8 Owe no one anything, except to love each other,
for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.
9 For the commandments, “You shall not commit
adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal,
You shall not covet,” and any other commandment,
are summed up in this word: “You shall love your
neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a
neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law

Psalm 13
5:5 But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing the Lord's praise,
for he has been good to me.
