Christian tongues, silent for too long
at the injustice, the torture, the inequity
haves and have nots, divisions, prejudices
rampant in our world, needing voices,
champions, those to say, no more
Christian tongues need to speak
to stand for the last, the least, the lost
those little ones Christ called to him
those in dark places he was willing to go
We need to be the tongues, the voices,
the hands, the feet of Christ
Christ’s face to the world
