People are God's language (Vol 2 No 71)
People are God's language (Vol 2 No 71)
People are language through whom God can speak;
Heard by the list’ners, found by those who seek;
Heard in a whisper, never in a roar;
Heard in compassion, not through formal law.
People are language through whom God can care
With words of comfort when we see despair;
Spoken in kindness, yet with certainty;
Heard with delight when knowing misery.
People are language through whom God can plead
For peace and mercy, for the ones who bleed;
Spoken in strength, with poise and dignity,
Calling for justice and for liberty.
Sharing of love with acts of gentleness,
Sharing the load with deeds of thoughtfulness,
We can ensure the message will be heard,
For we are language of God’s living word
