Forgiveness is ridiculous,
unsettles justice, riddles faith,
when love has a monopoly
as evidence of given grace;

It sets the cosmos spinning round,
it turns our values upside down
it makes our temples tumble down
and every beggar wears a crown.

Verse 3 follow

Tune: ALFRETON; CAMERONIAN MIDNIGHT HYMN
Metre: LM
