The Lame

There’s a thousand wonders

Traveling my mind

Thinking of hearts

Needing someone who’s kind.

And Jesus does whisper,

“I’ve called you to be

Love to the hurting

My hands and My feet.”

Moved by compassion

He shows us a need

Shifting our eyes

To those in some grief

Waiting for someone

To offer some hope

Help them to rise

And throw them a rope.

Each life is precious

To Christ don’t you see

So when we do ask Him

To show us new things

He might just take your eyes

And show you one’s pain

I pray you’ll say “yes”

And tend to the lame.
