Losing The Race

Love Starts UNDER The Skin

By Earl W. PearlPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

If you’re prejudiced in THIS life

When there’s races you can’t love

Since heaven doesn’t harbor strife

You’ll be missing from above

Whatever face may trigger you

Whichever race you hate

The devil had a job to do

And you, you took the bait

See, in heaven we’re all equal

Although YOU may disagree

But if looking for God’s sequel

Then repentance is the key

I look forward to God’s Kingdom

Let the fellowship begin

But your issues, you can’t bring them

Because heaven has no sin

We’re alive because of mercy

And we’re saved because of grace

To dispel all controversy

It’s for EVERY color face
