Reasons Enough

If He who spoke Light into being

And set Time’s wheels in motion

If He, who broke the curse of sin

And filled the cup of oceans

If He who gives for all we take

His mercy in each hour

If He who lives beyond the grave

And stirs from bud, the flower

If He who knows our inner heart

And every thought that passes

Yet still bestows celestial art

And seasons on earth’s grasses

If He who IS and ever was

Loves us with timeless wonder

Is this not reason then enough

To love thus, one another?
