Poem for John 17:1-11 7th Sunday of Easter

One

Called to be one

with the Creator

with Redeemer

with the Spirit who leads

                and sanctifies us all

One

Called to be one

with the sisters

with the brothers

with the mothers and fathers

                of us all

United through Christ

and through all time

to be your children

and preach your word

to all who would hear

to tell the world of your love

and the life you offer

one called to be one

guide me Lord Jesus, I pray
