When Jesus Said

WHEN JESUS SAID
YOU HAVE THE POOR
ALWAYS WITH YOU
HE DIDN'T MEAN IT AS AN EXCUSE
TO DO NOTHING

BUT RATHER A REASON
FOR HIS DEATH

RATHER TO DESCRIBE
A THORN
IN THE BODY MYSTIC

THE POOR YOU HAVE ALWAYS WITH YOU
A SAD COMMENT ON HIS DEATH
THIS IS NOT THE WORLD GOD WANTS

YOUR KINGDOM COME
YOUR WILL BE DONE
ON EARTH
AS IT IS IN HEAVEN

ARE WE DOING GOD’S WILL

ARE WE SAYING
GOD’S WILL IS IMPOSSIBLE
ARE WE SAYING
GOD HAS GIVEN US
AN IMPOSSIBLE TASK
AN IMPOSSIBLE PRAYER

THE LAST WORDS CHRIST HEARD
HANGING ON THE CROSS
WERE DREAMER
OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY

WERE THEY TRUE
