In Bodily Form

We, the heirs, the brothers and sisters
are to be as the dove,
to land bodily on the saved, to baptize
to be the spirit, manifested today
in human form, spreading God’s love
the word of God, the good news
of redemption, of grace
of the washing away of sin
being made whole, clean,
pure, light to the nations
in bodily form
