We are to be Love

We are to be Christ
to love as he loved
to sacrifice, to welcome
open arms, our hearts
to the others, the lost
those who God calls
who obey his commands
grafted as we are
into the vine, into Christ
our sisters and brothers
who we are to love
to love as Christ loved
all our family
our family of faith
