St. Lawrence
Another servant among the many
who followed the crowd
and in his passion and dedication
another martyr in Rome
who in spirit was resurrected
and called to be with Jesus the Christ
St. Lawrence by his example
Planted a seed of love hope and faith
for the blind and lame
for maimed and of no fame
for orphans and for widows
for sick and the lepers.
With courage he called them friends
to let the world hear
they are our brothers and sisters
to be cared and to be offered
to the altar of justice and peace.
