Take It From Me And Give To The Poor Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore
Take It From Me And Give To The Poor
Like the splendour of the firmament,
the poor should rise from the dust of the earth.
Those who help the poor and the needy
shall be like the stars of heaven.
O God here is my allotted portion and cup.
You it is who gave me.
Take it from me
to give to the needy and the poor.
Give them. Let them eat and make merry.
Let them enjoy life and its glories.
Lord you are the God of the poor.
Take my portion and my cup
And give it to the poor.
Then show me your path to life.
Grant me the fullness of joy in your presence.

Poverty is a subject of great concern specially in India and Africa. it is a depressing sight to see the poor and the deprived without food, clothes and a place to live in. Rarely do people think of the poor and the need to help them. Dr. Tony, you have through your poem revealed a very kind and generous heart. May God grant you the wish to share your cup and portion with the poor.
