A WORD

I am your word, Lord!
Speak me where you will
Amongst the people in the marketplace
Let me shout your name.

I am your word, Lord!
Join me with others
That we may write your sentences and paragraphs
Which make up modern day scripture
A scripture not new, but old,
Which speaks of your salvation through the ages.

I am your word, Lord!
Speak me to my children
That they might know You
And proclaim their word
Which you breathed into them.

I am your word, Lord!
Speak me boldly, softly, gently, forcefully
That all may understand and praise you...

THE WORD!
