Sonnet 806 D&C 64:9-11 #2
The trespass may be grave or slight, who knows?
But somehow failing to forgive is worse
No matter how the first offence arose
The greater sin evokes a greater curse.
And while this seems a mystery at first
Unfair to victims innocent of guile
A second punishment to be disbursed
Upon the guiltless, yet another trial.
This simple fact in doctrine should be clear
Atonement makes account for every sin
And no one earns or bears the highest sphere
Until he leaves all judgments up to Him.
Since heaven is no place for keeping score
You need to check that baggage at the door.
