Merism Poem by Justin Reamer

Lend me your ears,
Lend me your hands,
For I must say your feet have walked quite far,
And your mouths speak of great truths,
And your eyes, I see, see all wise and wonderful,
But I insist that you give me your hearts,
So that compassion may flow from them,
And lend me your minds,
So that I may help you understand
The things I am about to tell you,
And lend me your souls,
So that you may grow in the faith you bear.
