In the name of your Father, and of your Son, and of your Holy Spirit,

Spread open our arms, open in love,
Unconditional, to all men and beasts.
Read them the ways of the open mind,
Give them your shelter, to say the least.

That's what you say, you yell and preach,
His holy word, to each and each,
Person, unwilling, it matters not,
I lack your God, it's time to teach.

My mind is nothing, you speak and pray,
My science is Satan, arriving to play,
And twist all my thoughts, he does corrupt,
But listen to God, His word will stay.

Gouge out my eyes, my ears, goodbye,
No need to look at the world and sky,
But follow your deeds, and your needs in His name,
For you have God's word, I can't deny.

Lend me Your strength, and I'll follow You through,
Commandments, doubt not, they prove to be true.
Worry not as I kill, as You enter my thoughts,
And say to my soul, "Give your body, too."

His hands caressing, think nothing of it,
It's God after all, One not with a limit,
Now all in my mind, it's outstanding merit,
In the name of my Father, and of my Son, and of my Holy Spirit,

Amen.
