As a Christian – v3

“As a Christian. . .”

a phrase, a word too often stated

a cudgel, a bludgeon

a badge of honor

we give ourselves

wanting to be someone

worthy of the name

words matched by my deeds

offering a hand

to anyone in need

acting on my faith

using my skills,

my gifts from above

help to everyone I can

An open hand in love

as the words from my heart

my hands, my feet, my voice

equal, no one set apart

loving as he loved us,

no one left out
