go and do likewise – 2 – v3


Heed this message
Christ’s answer
this example of service
giving to our neighbors
to all those in need

Being a good neighbor
by our acts, now
no longer a stranger
offering love, hope
to all those in need

Go and do likewise
Christ’s answer
the admonition of the Savior
how we are to live
how we are to give

Being a good neighbor
by our acts, now
to friends, to the stranger
offering love, hope
to all those in need
