Live To Love & Love To Live Poem by Michael P. Johnson

When wisdom reigns we’ll live to live
Selfless our love will flow
Our hearts and souls to God we’ll give
Conquering every foe

When love’s our aim, target and goal
When Christ’s our prime desire
We’ll change our life we’ll save our soul
From hell’s undying fire

Its time to rise its time to wake
Its time true love to show
Allow it’s banks to finally break
And to all neighbours flow

For love will bring its own reward
Such love brings joy and peace
Such love towards The living Lord
Brings love that will not cease

For love’s the heart of righteousness
The power of one accord
The truth of greatest consciousness
That man can spread abroad

Desired prize, man’s ultimate dream
The state of perfect grace
Life’s sweetest fruit and living cream
Where darkness finds no place

No greater gift no greater wealth
Nor motivation force
Life’s oil life’s balm life’s way to health
And life’s eternal source

Let’s motivate our inner man
Lets all the world inspire
Show tenderness our fellow man
Through love’s eternal fire
