Reflections in Ordinary Time

From the end of today's reflection at Morning Prayer:




Christ has no body here but ours,
No hands, no feet here on earth but ours.
Ours, the eyes through which he looks
On this world...with kindness.

Ours are the hands through which he works;
Ours are the feet on which he moves;
Ours, the voices through which he speaks
To this world...with kindness.

Through our touch, our smile, our listening ear,
Embodied in us, Jesus is living here.
Let us go now, inspirited, 
Into this world...with kindness.
