Brutal is the reign of all who Christ disdain to follow

"Brutality reigns where Christ is banished. Kindness and forbearance govern where Christ is recognized and his teachings are followed."
Gordon B. Hinckley 


Brutal is the reign of all who Christ disdain to follow.
Their governance is shameful and their undertakings hollow.
Built upon ungodly pride and trusting in the flesh,
their fruit will canker long before it's gathered in to thresh. 

How fair the justice and the love of those who seek the Lamb,
who govern by His precepts and interpret without sham. 
Their service will be honored and their deeds will cast a light
to guide the faithful and the meek through ever-growing night.
