The Holy Church of God

Christian

The Holy Church of God cannot
be found in brick nor stone
Nor enjoined to buy man's love
or sinfully disown.

Rather, The Church is Truth and Love
which Man can choose to feel
Loving daily neighbours, friends
and showing God is real

From oldest times our Churches stood,
founded in acts of Love,
Yet now demand a bank account
a suit and leather gloves

Built upon Faith principles
where once the righteous stood
Without demands or politics
from officers aloof

Sentimental folks look back
with tales of church pews full
Yet, where Love is not, remains
a ritual, writ and rule

We are all born true faithful men
to build up Love alone
But woe to man who mistakes this,
for brick and crumbling stone

Tales of yore and missionaries
reduce thought farther down
To human worship, personal,
where egotism bounds
So when we see a man in pain
with hunger and dismay
Go to church by helping him,
instead of stone today
