Walk with God
You who toil in troubled lands
To weave compassion's silver thread
Mid tattered strands

You clutch the spark of hope
In children's eyes
And strive to fan a flame
Before it dies

With Christ, you mend the wounds
And still the fear
As from the cross, you bring
Compassion's endless tear
