Oh Crimson Rose (poem)

I wrote this one when I was 15 or 16 years old for a church talent show. Hope you like it!

EDIT: The audio for yesterday's poem is up! :)

 

Oh Crimson Rose ,ye love of gold
What great power doth ye behold
For great is thy mercy thy core of love
it flows so sweetly like a dove

Love doth triumph over hate
and those who are under it’s great fate
Ye river of love flow through my soul
Make me pure, oh make me whole

Love, oh force of great power
Bless this earth with your great shower
Your great infurno shining forth
Your blazing fires spreading north

When angels fall from the sky like rain
They will banish the darkness, purge all the pain
With love’s mighty arrows they will do this great task
And free this earth from her blinding mask

Why would we fly upon wings of great white
When God’s love doth make us sore with great flight
Nay! No wings need ye have
For love makes you soar with great height

Love spreads through the sky
It weaves in through light
it purges the darkness
Love gives us great sight

Love blooms like a flower, it starts out small
Soon it becomes great, beautiful and tall
Protecting this world from all things that wrong
and spreading it’s beautiful, wonderful song

Oh rose don’t fade
shine forth your power
Blanket this earth every hour
Never leave us, live forever
