Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Even in this land of wealth
a nation founded on greed
hungry, feeling a desire for God
a stirring deep in my heart

Wanting a relationship, kinship
to walk with my savior, to sit
at the creator’s feet
to see our neighbors as my brothers
my sisters, part of one family.

A yearning from within
to know and love the Lord
to see the face of God
in everyone I meet
