I tell you this story,
so you will never again forget
the beauty of your heart.
It is a heart that is open
to the joys and sorrows of the world;
a heart responsive
to the pulse of the planet;
a heart always aware
of racial injustice,
of fires that ravage homes, trees, lives;
a heart sensitive and wise,
healing us in this pandemic plague;
a heart guiding each diabetic soul
into a cheerful, balanced life.
Yes, I tell you this story
of Sr Theresa’s heart
so you never forget
God is good and so is she.
