To Love - David Wilcox
The righteous and the infidels Just outside the gates of hell Waiting for their judgment to fall They looked around from face to face So different in their faith and race How could heaven ever welcome them all? Each one certain that he's made the grade Judging all the others with a holy rage There's one crime that all of them are guilty of The commandment of one God to love Each one was surprised as hell To see the way the judgment fell 'Cause none of them would see the light above All thinking they could stand apart But the same hate was in every heart There's little left of a religion without love Each one certain that he's made the grade Judging all the others with a holy rage 'Cause there's one crime that all of them were guilty of The commandment of one God to love All of them appealed their case and stood before the One Askin' why would God make different faiths Concealed in different tongues Heaven knows the reason all beliefs are not the same For God to see who loves their enemies He goes by different names Each religion failed the test By fighting over which faith said it best And there's one crime that all of them are guilty of The commandment from one God to love The commandment of one God to love
