nomis [rapper] - love god, love people lyrics
poem:
as the pharisees gather with an agenda, they proceed forward with a highly tactical approach, and then they speak/
they say “teacher, which is the greatest commandment of the law?”
surely he is not prepared for this/
and as the pages turn and the letters burn to crimson/
sternly yet simply he speaks/
“love the lord your god with all parts of you”/
no further questions. yet further answers were given/
center stage with eyes locked in a second commandment is mentioned and this one is similar to the first/
“love your neighbor as yourself, all of the law and the prophets rest on these two things alone”/
so easy to comprehend but so easy to forget when faced with a chance to apply it/
i’m sure we all feel like we are loving people/
we shake hands, we wave to familiar faces and we kiss our grandmothers goodbye when they leave/
but the bubbles we’ve cultivated in life, subconsciously decreases the number of those who we actually deem worthy to be loved/
he’s a “bad person” he can’t actually be worthy to be loved can he?/
you remember what jesus said, “love god and love some people” right?/
or was it, “love god and love certain people”, or “love god and love only people who haven’t done time or only people who don’t share a bed with the same s-x”/
or maybe it was, “love god and love only people who live in this country legally and only if they can speak proper english”/
or maybe it was, “love god and love only people who don’t subscribe to this sometimes seemingly radical religion known as islam”/
lord help us for we have altered your command to become, “love god and love only those who we are comfortable loving”/
we must stop viewing people through the eyegl-ss of prejudice or patriotism and start seeing people through the sungl-sses of christendom/
all of us fearfully and wonderfully made/
and again he speaks, “for i was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat/
i was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, i was a foreigner and you did not welcome me/
i was sick and in prison and you did not look after me/
for whatever you have not done for the least of these, you most certainly have not done for me”/
teacher, which is the greatest command of the law?/
well that’s easy. love god, love people/
all of the law and the prophets rest on those two things alone/
