You are the friends that I chose, you are the words I plan to shout, you are the new kingdom that gives rise to justice, love and truth. You are the fire and sap that I just brought, you are the wave that moves the sea, the small yeast from yesterday, that ferments the bread of today. A city can not be hidden, neither the mountain remains unseen; in our deeds destined to the well being, people will see the Father.
