Love is the Higher Law

From my 12-song concept album, 'Kingdom Rising'

To speak of Incarnation—of God with a face like ours

Of Love’s disfiguration till we look through the scars

The Kingdom is a mustard seed—too small to apprehend

It grows beneath our feet and towers in the end

Love is the higher law

Stronger than the grip of gravity

Even truer than

The grave in front of me

Even in the mundane I feel miracles I could never make-believe

Rising in the present

A little taste of Heaven’s

Effervescence

So take a look around—but see through a child’s eyes

The miracles are low—hid from the high and wise

Like treasures in the dirt only the poor could find

A Garden free to all—who leave all else behind

Come all ye weary souls—so sick of all the noise

Come transubstantiate your sorrows into joys

If you’ve got ears to hear

And you’ve got eyes to see

Behold The Spirit’s work!

Don’t miss the mystery!
