Another's need be it shown
To an awakened heart it be known
A call, a plea, this silent longing be it heard
With loving grace a helping hand
Guided by the WORD.

smiles. often easier to the samaritan that it is the jew...
Brian and so...
When a need of another does speak
Know it is soul's guidance we seek
In these reflections our heart be heard
Seeking ever the echo of the WORD.
Much love,
Rose Marie
