“In Love and In God We Trust,” A Psalm and Anthem for LGBTQ+ Rights

With rushing hands about our hips

and loving thoughts so hardly chaste,

let locked together be our lips

as equal rights we must posthaste:

for in love and in God we trust,

in them here in this psalm's the thrust.


This day we are an ardent pair

as we do our impassioned best

to disrobe ourselves and thus dare

to expose our fair, lovely breasts:

for in love and in God we trust,

in them here in this psalm's our thrust.


Full of fervent, delicious zeal;

we make love while it's pure delight

to show the world we'll not conceal

what seems so wrong but feels so right:

for in love and in God we trust,

in them here in this psalm's main thrust.


With disregard and with scorn, dare

we stand and fight for what's our right

to love, work, live, and prosper where

e'er we are, hidden or in sight:

for in love and in God we trust

(in this great nation of the just)!
