Stephen full of grace & power

walks in service
                       and
                             waits on widows’ tables
             
Stephen full of faith and Spirit

is called to witness
                          and
                                humble the proud

God knows why…

Stone-laden Stephen
stands before the sick
bleeding forgiveness
from his wounds
and is rocked to sleep

Sing sweet Stephen
of the Heavens opening
with dreams of the Lord
your eternal reward
