Corpus Christi 1

3 Survey the hands that do the tiresome deeds, the feet that clear the weeds on paths of sin, the ears that listen, writing down the needs the loving hearts that pray for souls to win. Disciples offer worthwhile help for free with gentle words when fellows disagree. No censure made for lives from guilt reborn but pure encouragement in lieu of scorn. From baskets filled with food for hungry kids to welcome beds that homeless people crave. From secret cash for one who’s hit the skids to counsel giv’n a work-a-holic slave. Observe these ones who bear their Savior’s name. Envision corpus Christi without shame - His body glorifying The Lord - forgiv’n - the church at work and Holy-Spirit-driv’n.
