All Y’All Come

Our message, God’s call
for all humanity
as Paul might say,
All Y’All come
because he loves you
offering himself
that we all may live
not some select few
broader yet,
for each one of us

All Y’All come
to the foot of the cross
Christ ready, all are welcome
his arms open for you
that we all would come home
a harvest, a bumper crop
for our God and King
Amen
