Tuesday of Week 15 in Ordinary Time

 

 

 

Be careful , be quiet , do not fear.
And do not let your heart be faint.
No need to worry or shed a tear.
Even though we are no saint.

If you are not firm in faith.
You will not be firm at all.
Yes our faith is a wraith.
We have not sufficiently answered the call.

Isaiah is a stern master.
He keeps us on the straight and narrow.
But then he is poetry’s master.
We can barely follow his furrow.

Is our faith firm.
What will the judge say at the end of our term.

….

So is our faith firm
And yes are we firm at all
Well we do our best

…..

See Isaiah 7: 1-9
