People are bigoted, God is not,
Love is the lesson the world forgot.
Bound by borders, lines they drew,
Yet grace falls freely, ever new.

No creed nor colour sways the light,
That shines for all, both wrong and right.
Yet hearts grow heavy, stained with pride,
While mercy waits with arms spread wide.

So let not hatred bear the crown,
Or fear and fury wear us down.
For love was spoken, love was taught -
People are bigoted, God is not.
