A prophet
is the one
Through whom the Lord doth speak
To encourage the house of faith
And comfort all the weak.
A prophet
is the one
Who waits upon God in Church
A spokesman in the Lord's hands
To exhort all those that search.
A prophet
is the one
Who feels the weight of grief
From the Lord's own heart of hearts
When sheep are stolen by the thief.
A prophet
is the one
Who often stands alone
Without honour in the Church
The same as the Christ has known.
A prophet
is the one
God allows to see
The needs of other people
A prophet, God made me.
Jeremiah 1:17-19
