I met Jesus early doors
I found him as a child
The story of the manger
Mary meek and mild
The tabernacle sanctuary lamp
The ever-present Lord
The stations all around the walls
The cruelty they told
The parables and stories
The way he spoke to all
The love of God for everyone
The mercy when we fall
The drama of the passion
The sorrow of the cross
All of life reflected here
In this tale of loss
The mission given Easter day
The joy that conquers pain
The story of each human soul
Told and told again
This faith is insight into now
Into every day
Treasure each and every one
I have shown the way

+ Faith in the Lord and in the truth of heaven teaches us how precious is the here and now and every person in the world. It is not pie in the sky, but the meat and drink of everyday life. We are of God’s creating hand and with a very high destiny.
