WHY GOD MADE PEOPLE  
By David Clure

Gaze on your hands, right now.
Your fingers  and  your palms.
Dust, shaped into exquisite forms
to lift  in praise and  alms.

You, were not made,  for you.
Your face, turned out,   to  be
seen by all others here below,
It's God, they need to see.

His goodness -- long obscurred.
God's Love, must shine on through.
Believe His Love  for you--
Respond with everything you say or do.

Gaze on your neighbor's  need.
See Christ  in every single face.
Treat them as you would want to be.
Love all  the Human  Race.
