Sacrificial Lamb

 

Would I deny my God if asked to sacrifice that which did belong?
To remove a voice from out of the human song.
The loss of part of me and that which made me whole
So grievous a wound that I would sacrifice my soul.

I know my God would never ask such a request
But only to put my faith to the ultimate test.
How could I return the gift of life from my God
As to live forever beneath the sod?

God would never ask to return that which it gave to me
As God would never punish out of a victory.
Out of and from love did God create the son of man
The continuity of which has never been broken since time began.

God's intervention in events on earth not according to a plan
Only the creation of a single woman and a single man.
The original gifts given were passed from one to another
Part of the family of God called sister and brother.

Free will, choice, spirit and soul
Within the frame of man to make us whole.
Cain fell into the trap of the illusion
Believing destruction would clear up confusion.

Unto nations and all that which follows
Came the gods of war to destroy Gods swallows.
A sin that came from a choice to sin
If only one had said; "forgive, forgive, my God and let life begin."
