God brings in a circus of love and delight
that longs to live lovingly putting things right,
uplifting the humble, distributing wealth,
till hypocrites tumble and children have health.
This, this is the God, that we love and adore,
the God who spins values, then opens the door
to those disregarded, the lost and the low
that in them and through them salvation might grow.
Verses 3-4 follow
