– by Lindy Thompson
If the earth is going to tremble,
if the trees are going to move,
if ancient boulders are going to tumble down –
give me my people.
If the waters are going to rise,
if the familiar is going to change,
if uprooting is unavoidable —
give me my people.
If I must drink from the cup,
if I must taste the tears,
if I must feel the wound —
give me my people,
give me my family,
give me the people of God.
