1. The energy of God,
Like yeast within the dough,
Can take a sterile life
And give it strength to grow.
2. As wine bursts ancient skins
God sets each captive free
From systems and from thoughts
Denying liberty.
3. Each wild flower’s awesomeness
Reveals God’s tender care
For all that lives and moves,
For people everywhere.
4. Just as the mustard seed
Grows up to shelter birds,
The pilgrim’s life is based
On actions, more than words.
5. This way of life we seek
Is living at its best;
Good news for all the poor,
New hope for Earth’s oppressed.
