Retroactive Love

O Christ, You had no place to rest Your head,
so, God Who stands outside of time, I’ll be,
with retroactive love for You, Your bed,
where You can lay Your weary head on me.

God’s spiritual world exists outside of time,
there all is now, no future and no past,
our retroactive love can be sublime,
no place or time, all will forever last.

My freedom is unbound by time and space,
my retroactive love, Lord, You can feel,
no matter when or where You are, Your face
rests on the pillow of my love for real.

My love can freely travel on a prayer
to You, Lord, if I only choose to care.
