Poem for May 1st, Philip & James, Apostles John 14:8-14

We don’t know where you are going

we don’t have a handle on what is happening

we don’t feel in control

just show me the one who has sent you

the one we have worshiped for so long

Show me

that I may believe

that which I have already said

I believe

Show me
that I may no longer be nagged by doubts

Show me

---- (I am the way)

---- (and I will be with you)

---- (for I am going)

---- (to be with you in a special way)

Help me to keep the ways

I have learned

from my ancestors

who have lived so long

with the special relationship given

by God

---- (I am the way)

Show us that we may believe in you

Show us

that our human side may be satisfied

Show us

that we may have an edge

over

those who have not been shown

---- (I am the way)

---- (and I will be)

---- (with all people)

---- (in love)
