In Spite of Himself - Mark Heard

He hears his friends called shallow infidels

Sees the vices they've naively held

He looks at their faces

And loves them in spite of himself

When he sees the dark shadows they've thrown

And their recklessness cuts him to the bone

He looks at their faces

Refusing to throw the first stone

This simple thing that some call grace

Suffers abandon and loss in their wakes

It lies unrecognized as wealth

Deep in their bones it must someday prevail

When they talk behind his back in conceit

And deny what a true friend he must be

He looks at their faces

And loves them in spite of his grief

This simple thing that some call grace

Suffers abandon and loss in their wakes

It lies unrecognized as wealth

Deep in their bones it must someday prevail

When they don't understand his concern

And his gestures remain unreturned

He looks at their faces

And loves them

And knows it's not absurd
