lyrics

Sorrow over our dead doings, infinite placement–
the whole return to life was mother’s milk:
good for growing bones,
but there was never any fruit in it.
After all, they all used to use it to blow bubbles
and gurgle persuasive words.

But it was demonstration of the power
of the ghost of God that gave their faith
rest...

...And they still did speak, but now it was
wisdom in a mystery–the hidden wisdom.
It is hard to explain, since we are dull of hearing.
Muttering the truth in love, we are to grow up.

Love: with a bright affection, a good small voice,
and a sincere confidence.

Love: with humility and gentleness, persistence,
sympathy, and unity.

Love: forgiving each other, as we are.
