Searching for the truth.....
      searching deep within.

Hear God's whispers....
      hear his words of wisdom.

Allow his will into your life....
      allow God to work his wonder.

Working for the greater cause....
     working to live free again.

Now is the time to open your eyes...
     now is the time to fall in love again.

This is great. I would call it "echo poetry", my very own title to this form. Never heard of 'echo poetry" before. What I know of a double acrostic is that the same letters that begin each line end each line. Your message is stellar!

Here's and example with a link:

Shadow Poetry (Double Acrostic)

Summers’ gifts of sensational feelings,
Heaping happiness in poets’ path
Awarding praises for poetic data
Doses of episodes, where lived
Original thoughts; orgasmic tempo
Weavers of words; morning’s dew

Prosing spewing from every lip
Operetta unions, written in solo
Energy of many,sharing love
Tears touching every heart
Rivalry forgotten, visions clear
You and I spreading peace and joy
