Outside


Beyond our walls
shouting out their names
places we have not gone
those we have not touched
where we have not shared
the healing message of Christ

Too timid to go
outside, into our world
so close to us, our neighbors
yet outside, beyond out doors
waiting for us still
to come and enter in
