To reach within - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

To reach our neighbor
the stranger, in the world
to be a light to the nations
shining in the wilderness
we need to reach within
to drink of the living waters
guided by the Holy Spirit
given words to share
to reach down to the suffering
that they would be lifted up
finding comfort in the message
the endless grace of God
communicated by us, the servants
of our risen Lord
