Crown of Glory Father Moon wrote this poem in 1935 at the age of 15. In the book where this poem was first published Father Moon wrote : I had a revelation on Easter morning when I was 15. From that day, I have walked this way, following heaven’s orders in order to fulfill God’s Will. ----- When I doubt people, I feel pain. When I judge people, it is unbearable. When I hate people, there is no value to my existence. Yet if I believe, I am deceived. If I love, I am betrayed Suffering and grieving tonight, my head in my hands. Am I wrong? Yes I am wrong.

Even though we are deceived, still believe, Though we are betrayed, still forgive. Love completely, even those who hate you. Wipe your tears away and welcome with a smile Those who know nothing but deceit, And those who betray without regret. O, Master, the pain of loving. Look at my hands. Place your hand on my chest. My heart is bursting, such agony. But when I love those who acted against me, I brought victory. If you have done the same things, I will give you the Crown of Glory. Sun Myung Moon,1935
