Making a Hole in Our Roof

Like the friends aware
that the man could not reach Christ
going to extraordinary measures
showing extravagant love

Making a hole in our roof
carrying our neighbor
showing Christ’s extravagant love
his grace poured out on us

Sharing his message
that our neighbor would know God
carrying them to the feet of Christ
that they would be healed

Bringing them to Christ
by our words, our deeds
sharing the love extravagantly
meeting their spiritual needs
