No room

There is no room for hate,
  when you have truly encountered love.
The love which will hold
  you fast, know you deeply, it cannot be
Threatened, taken away,
  disappear on the fears that prey on a mind.

There is no room for hate,
  this kingdom doesn't allow it to be.
It will not be overrun,
  it has no place because our hearts are full.
Full of the promise,
  we are not our own, and we are known.

There is no room for hate,
  it has been tossed out as an unwelcome
Guest, the party has started,
  the older son invited and because he knows
This time he joins in,
  not jealous, not afraid, knowing God's love.
