When sense is damaged, limiting perception,
God's love will not diminish or betray,
for we are held in grace and loving kindness,
in pain, through grief and hardship, come what may.
The love of God defies our understanding,
God reaches to the depths of our despair
absorbing hate, discerning fear and anguish,
enabling, healing, wholeness and repair.
Verse 3 follows
