You know your club?
Can anyone join it?
Is it a secret society?
Or are all welcome?
Who do you allow?
To be by your side?
What are the conditions?
Of you loving me?
Are there any rules?
If so what are they?
There are no rules you say
But there is a BUT
You say we need to live well
To be truthful and not lie
To act right and just
And to be kind to all
To be loving and not hurtful
To love out neighbours
To open our eyes to the world
And see what needs to be done
We should be open to changes
And to live an honest life
With no stealing or bribery
But live with a loving heart
We need to treat everyone equally
No matter who we are
Or where we are from
We are all of the same ilk
We should all be welcoming
To stand up for what’s true
To live with a reverend fear
And knowledge of who we are
Based on Psalm 15
