A CRY FOR FREEDOM © 2008

If someone should one day knock at your door

And say they are an emissary of Christ,

Believe, even if it is not me,

That my pride does not mind

Not being the sole representative of heaven.

But if you naturally do not hear

A knock and go to open the door

And find no one like me,

If someone is there, you may listen,

For it is an emissary of God.

The mystery of the divine does not choose

Faces we might recognise,

For it is in simplicity that it welcomes

Those who bring the message to understand.

Whether it is me or someone else,

What matters is that you open your heart,

For God speaks where faith is raised

And love surpasses all reason.
