Analysis of Oh God, Keep Us in Your Alcove of Love
To search for heaven
Like an angel.
To perch on heaven.
Oh would heaven or hell
Be dismayed if I found my way,
The true way,
The one way,
The only way?
God shower me now
With your love,
And everyone who reads this poem
All from above.
Teach me love.
Oh God keep us
In your alcove
Of love.
