YHWH is Salvation!

______________________

“Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved.”
- Billy Corgan


What bride is spotless white,
What sky is ever blue,
What knot is forever tied,
What love is ever true?

What man can never fall,
What king can ever rule
With a crown of peace, justice,
Mercy and love for all?

What heart can never break,
What body cannot fail,
What ragamuffin soul
On this crooked little earth
Can flee the fires of hell?

What life is worthy of heaven?
What song is perfectly sung?
What god would ever suffer
At the bloody hands of men?

Jesu,
Everything
Seems
Useless.
Seems

Sin
Assails
Virtue.
Everything
Seems

False,
Opaque.
Religion
Evades,
Vacates.
ELOHIM
Rescues
!

Scooter!! I love it. I can't believe you rhymed it! Ha. :-) But best of all--it's Joy-full. He saturates it. Beautiful, simple, and well done.
