Just Love

Don't look at the color
of their skin
Don't judge the job
they're currently in
Don't think about
their language spoken
Don't look at their body
and how it's broken
Don't look at their house,
their car, their things
Inside you're no different
your pain still stings
You hurt, fear and hate
you dream, laugh and fall
You're really no different,
no different at all
You bleed and you sin
and eventually die
Do you know your savior
The one most high
Do you know His name
His heaven above
Do you know what he asks for
from all of us
To believe and trust
but mostly

          ... Just Love
          ... Just Love

Love the birds that fly
in the open skies
Love your neighbors, your enemies,
your children, your wife
Don't think about it
Don't use your mind
Don't rationalize the
hows or the whys
Let it come from your tongue
Let it come from your heart
Let the spirit of God
Shine brighter than bright
Know what he did for us
Know that he died
Know that he took our sins
with his life
There's only one Jesus
There's only one God
Believe and have faith
but mostly

          ... Just Love
          ... Just Love

Don't spend your money
on so many idles
There's children alone,
hungry and dying
Don't just think of those with Aids
Hate or pass judgement,
and not offer grace
Don't pass the beggar
and think what a waste
Don't pass the homeless
Stop and look at each face
Look and you'll see
The pain and the pride
Look and you'll see
you're no different inside
We could talk all day
of the wars fought
at home or away
Of the young boys and girls
that die everyday
every hour, every minute
every second, every soul
that know not of Jesus
that won't return home
So be not silent
Be loud and be strong
tell the world of Our Savior
but mostly

         ... Just Love
         ... Just Love

    Very good

    Very good. I like the feeling, I can almost feel the passion in you as you wrote this. Some of your spelling is off, AIDS not Aids, Idols not idles, but other wise its very good. I would reword a few things, and make it flow a little better.
    I think you've got some real talent tho.
    Jesus loves you
