Love Came to Conquer

Love came to conquer,
Love came to deploy
mercy and grace
so sin it could destroy.

Love came to stop,
the adulterer and murderer
the thug and the thief
the blasphemous perjurer.

Love came to overcome,
the anxious and worried
the fearful and the afraid
the troubled and wearied.

Love came to defeat,
the back bitter and gossiper
the arrogant and the conceited
the prideful, ego worshiper.

Love came to overpower,
the rebellious and greedy
the contentiously belligerent
the sordid and seedy.

Love came to conquer,
each and every sin
Love came to save
Love came to win!

Romans 8:35-39

  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
