Mind the gap.

We look at it

Measure it

Assess it

Don’t want to be swallowed by it

And yet, looking at the gap

Sucks us into it.

Mind the gap.

The distance between

What is

And what should be.

Baal-Peor

Lord of the Gap

Demands our worship

In tithes of discontentment

Resentment

And rage

But the gaps remain

Unfilled

Till One came

Laid down His life

Filled the greatest Gap of all

Gave us hope

That every valley will be exalted

Every mountain brought down

Every crooked place made straight

Every rough place made smooth

That we will see

True

Fraternity, Equality and Liberty

Established

May His kingdom come

His will be done

On earth as it is in heaven
