Have you not seen
the person sleeping on the street
Have you hardened your heart
to the family who now sleeps there too
Have you not heard
the cry of those fleeing war
Have you not done
onto others as you would want done to you
Have you not seen
those struggling to live on minimum wage
Have you hardened your heart
to the poor, hungry asking for food
Have you not heard
the wails of those who mourn
Have you not wanted to do
because love of ourselves requires us to
Have you not seen
the child falling asleep in class
Have you hardened your heart
to hearing the truth of the needy
Have you not heard
the whimper of injustice for the prisoner
Have you not thought
it is required to show mercy, love justice
and walk humbly with your God
