Pure Love by Isoke Mbongo

April 27, 2009

Pure love,
All need, but few truly seek or possess;
Pure love.
Our infirmities, He took;
Our sorrows, He bore;
Pure love.
Pure love for you and me
A Man of Sorrows the Divine became;
Stricken, smitten and afflicted;
Pure love.
Was pierced, was wounded
And crushed;
Was judged and punished,
Pure love.
Our transgressions, He took,
And peace He brought us;
Pure love,
Truly pure.
For it He came,
And for it, He died, but eternally lives;
Pure love,
Truly pure.
Pure love,
Every good thing, generously gives;
All guilt, all shame and sin, forgives;
Pure love.
If you’ve got Him, stay in His love;
If you don’t, seek Him while He may yet be found.
Pure love,
Truly pure.
