I believe in a
Miracle that made stars dance and galaxies pirouette
I believe in a
Desire that gave birth to wonder and cast it in a human form
I believe in a
Relationship that radiates with life: full life, total life, eternal life
I believe in Creation
I believe in Love
I
believe that destruction ends
That a
broken creation rebirths
That
harvests and land will be shared
I believe in a
Promise that, with a baby's cry, pushed himself into the world
I believe in a
Truth that crushed sin and celebrates its freedom with new life
I believe in a
Reality where love conquers untruth, injustice and death
I believe in Incarnation
I believe in Love
I
believe that a man who was meant to die, refused
That a
body that was still and broken, danced
That a
voice that was silenced, laughed
I believe in a
Vision that has noisy cafeterias in churches and children with muddy
feet running through Parliament, turning white papers into tickertape
parades, asylum bills into party invitations and bombs into flower bulbs
I believe in an
Artist that paints the world in its true colours
I believe in a
Mother that cannot help but respond to her child's cry
I believe in Spirit
I believe in Love
I
believe that wall's that are permanent, fall
That
racist systems, die
That
terrorists in Northern Ireland, talk
I believe
And I believe
In Love
