When I Look At The Blood

When I look at the blood

All I see is love, love, love

When I stop at the cross

I can see the love of God

But I can't see competition

I can't see hierarchy

I can't see pride or prejudice

Or the abuse of authority

I can't see lust for power

I can't see manipulation

I can't see rage or anger or selfish ambition

But I can't see unforgiveness

I can't see hate or envy

I can't see stupid fighting

Or bitterness or jealousy

I can't see empire building

I can't see self-importance

I can't see backstabbing or vanity

Or arrogance

And I see surrender

I see sacrifice

I see salvation

I see humility

I see righteousness

I see faithfulness

I see grace

I see forgiveness

I see love

Love love love

Love love love

Love love love

Love love love
