Our Task Now - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

To be the ones to care
to set the prisoners free
hope for the helpless
a balm for those in pain

We are to be Christ
our task now
to be servants as he was
being the salt of the earth

In our humility grace
in our love healing
offering Christ to the world
shining his light in the darkness

Talking of our faith
how he set us free
truth will open the shackles
to set the whole world free
