One of You
by Garth Stanton
by Garth Stanton
One of you is the Messiah.
One of you is the anguished mother
One of you is the abused child
One of you is the betrayed soul
One of you is of the homeless community
One of you suffers injustice without recourse.
One of you must care for the poor
One of you must heal the sick
One of you must give thanks to the Father
One of you must provide Bread for all.
Yes, in your gifts,
All of you are the Messiah -
Light to an uncaring world.
