There are a lot of needs
Many people just above the poverty
We know those close to the line
Still, we look out for the damaged
Tends to their needs, gives them council
This is where we have to be
Jesus said to go to the fringes
Carry on without complaint
And we can do much more
Work many hours, almost tirelessly
Love our work, and would like to serve more
Would be happy with a few volunteers
Wouldn’t ask for anything more,
Isn’t that the way of true saints
They show up and serve
Doing all they can
Then look for even more to do
Quietly charting their course
Never waving a flag or
Looking for recognition
We are like that
The One who counts knows
He is the one we please and
He gives us the strength
People are grateful for us
We are grateful for Him
