"Compassion - #4"

cji
4/12/99

Verse 1
********

Was that you I just saw
who fell and asked for help;
I need to know for I'm here
to give aid but to whom
is my compassion most needed?

Verse 2
********

Since I do not know
and none will answer
and in this mortal probation
compassion is law number four;
so I will show it to all.

Verse 3
********

Lets see where to begin;
you in the corner over there
I've a love for you too share,
please, here let me bathe you
and tend your wounds;
next over there and the days
now begun to never end.

Verse 4
********

For you see compassion
is a way of life
not a temporary mission
to serve and leave;
thus once you've done
for one the next will
be in line for you.

Verse 5
*******

Therefore Father smiles
as you work in time and space
forgetting reality has a limit;
love has none as you
when compassion to another
is this eternal day given.
