Analysis of Kingdom



Wrapped around my mind;
You sing into my soul.
Divining the passion within;
And out of my skin, I roll.

Resolving into being;
A conscience compassion.
Seeding one by one;
Ushering love into fashion.

Shattered hate swept away;
Flooded on down the drain.
Washed away into the light;
Those darkened days of pain.

Nevermore to die again;
Delivered from groaning flesh.
Spiritual energy, so divine;
No more muscles to refresh.

Universal understanding in a flash;
Contained upon a grain of sand.
Dimensions melt away from eyes;
Faithfully, into your arms I shall land.

Never doubting your forgiveness;
Forever a smile upon my face.
Knowing that unconditional love;
Which shines down, supplying grace.

Dying to live on eternally;
Living to die, but not again.
Failing flesh falling away;
Living in spirit, far from sin.
