«Christ Jesus did not speak of results He spoke only of loving us, Of washing one another's feet, Of always forgiving each other. The poor await us. God needs hands to serve them. You and I just want, We can be those hands. Millions of starving creatures... Why them and not us? And since the mystery of pain will be revealed Under other skies and other lands, We have no choice but to serve And with all of ourselves Where we are most capable. The ways are left to each. We don't wait to be educated. We have to invent. Love is a matter of imagination"
