I am most important
Don’t you see?
Important in myself
Not just to me
I am a child
I have a holy face
To disfigure it
The ultimate disgrace
I am Sarah Everard you see
Sabina Nessa too
You’ve heard of me
The teacher walking out to meet a friend
Attacked and killed
My untimely end
Today Therese’s feast
The Little Flower
Child Jesus Holy Face
This her power
To tell her story
Help the world to know
You are beautiful
Let the heart’s love flow
God in Jesus
Comes to let us see
The beauty of your life
Let it be
The simple look of love
That lovely face
You are a child of God
This is our grace
