A Prayer


in silence
you watched,
you waited,
you yearned

    until your heart
    could break no more

so you came to us . . .

in a stable
where no one noticed you;

by a well
where you welcomed the outsider;

on a hillside
where you fed hungry souls;

on a cross when you died for us

        in love,
        you came to us.

in silence
we watch,
we wait,
we yearn.
