though she was an outsider, an other,
though she was outside the
circle
through her faith there
was healing
she came close to God
though Christ pushed her
away
saying she was outside
His mission
she persisted, she prayed
for grace
and grace came her way
through her faith her
child was healed
brought within Christ’s
mercy
God took pity on her that
day
because she believed
