Our lives, not by our words,
intentions
measured by our actions
not some abstract thought,
but
did we do justice in our
time
were those hungry fed,
those thirsty given drink
whether we welcomed a
stranger
and offered clothes to those
in need
Our lives measured by our
faith
not by our words, intentions
not by our creed, our
beliefs, but
by our faith lived out in
our lives
how we care for our
neighbors
all our neighbors, wherever
we may go
all our brothers, our
sisters
helping them, all those in
need
