Love Them Anyway
[Verse]
When cruel words fall and the heart gets bruised
When trust feels lost and you're feeling used
God says forgive
His voice is so true
[Prechorus]
It's not for us to force the blame
It's not for us to stoke the flame
[Chorus]
Love them anyway
That's the way we heal
Love them anyway
Through the hurt we feel
It's not the easy road
But it's the holy deal
Love them anyway
Love them anyway
[Verse 2]
The world may mock and call you weak
They'll say revenge is what you seek
But kindness shines
It's strength unique
[Bridge]
Turn the cheek
Let mercy lead
Plant the seeds of love
Uproot and kill the greed
Oh oh oh
Hearts will change
That's all we need
[Chorus]
Love them anyway
That's the way we heal
Love them anyway
Through the hurt we feel
It's not the easy road
But it's the holy deal
Love them anyway
Love them anyway
Oh....
Love them anyway

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

The Path to Salvation
The late autumn evening air filled the monk's lungs, but it wasn't the season that chilled his bones. The heavy-handed presence of evil he had sensed upon entering the woods surrounding this mountain village had not bothered to conceal itself from him.
