grain for the widows – v2

the lessons showing us
how to be loving
to our neighbors, the poor
those in our midst
grain for the widows
grapes for the wayfarer
for those already among us
for those we are called to love
food for the orphans
those in our midst
leaving the gleanings there
out in the fields
grain for the widows
grapes for the wayfarers
food for the orphans
those in our midst

the lessons to be loving
grain for the widows
grapes for the wayfarer
for the stranger in our midst
not having to beg
to approach us hurting
going into the fields
into our vineyards
gathering for themselves
from the harvest of God
offered for them,
our trust in God’s provision
for now and forever
grain for the widows
grapes for the wayfarers
for the stranger in our midst
