Those whose ears hear the broken cry
receive power to minister.

Those whose eyes see the battered spirit
receive God’s love for the oppressed.

Those who speak for the silenced voice
receive words of wisdom and comfort.

Those whose hands are open to the needy
receive an abundance of manna.

Those whose feet are swift to rescue
receive the strength to endure

Those who deny self to serve others
receive the gift of continual filling.

For the more we give of ourselves,
the more we receive in return.
