Poverty-stricken by Janet Martin Desperately poor are we who live Driven by hunger for things Desperately poor, who do not give Blinded by selfish wanting Desperately poor; the heart; cold, vile Turning a stone-deafened ear To the anguished cry of mother and child With no food or clothes to wear Desperately poor, are we who seek Treasures of moth-eaten strings Desperately poor, as fool-hearted thieves Bound by the striving for things Desperately poor, the heart enslaved To temporal pearls of sod Desperately poor, are we who serve Our things in place of God |
