Jesus was a Carpenter Enthroned without a coup d'état Never drove a Cadillac He lived, as it were, in lack! With so little, He was contented Though He was frequently tempted All the worldliness of the world He always overcame with the Word! King of kings and Lord of lords He redeemed us from the laws By His pure and cleansing blood He has saved us from the flood! His steps in life should be our course Each bearing his and her own cross Our hands and voices we must raise To worship Him and give Him praise! © Raphael Uzor

Poor Jesus!

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Mat 5:3)
