A Heart peels back his comfort, loves prisoners’ kin,
Seeing yesterday’s sentence despoil homes today,
Knowing by grace we walk lest betrayed by sin.
Behind bars of trouble fortune runs thin.
Yet pillars of Love---thoughtful, and kind crusade
A Heart, peels back his comfort, loves prisoners’ kin.
On Christ’s Day he brings joy and bounteous giving
To a family, minus one, and in pain,
Knowing by grace we walk lest betrayed by sin.
A young girl accepts his surrogate gifts, and bonds
Captive-to-daughter like parched-fields-to-rain;
A heart peels back his comfort, loves prisoner’s kin.
Of care, of time, of thoughts divine and wide grins,
Here finds no match in worldly purpose so plain,
Knowing by grace we walk lest betrayed by sin.
Who can unite two disparate, concentric rings,
Free and Immured? But God’s Spirit for such retains
A heart, peels back HIS comfort, loves prisoners’ kin,
Knowing by grace we walk, lest betrayed by sin.
