CHRIST IN THE STRANGER'S GUISE

.
.
"Never treat a brother like a passing stranger,
Always try to keep the love light burning,
Listen only to this song, and watch his eyes,
For he might be the Prince of Peace returning,
Yes, he might be the Prince of Peace returning."
.
Leon Russell
"Prince of Peace"
.
 .
.
I saw a stranger yestreen,
I put food in the eating place,
Drink in the drinking place,
Music in the listening place,
And in the sacred name of the Triune,
He blessed myself and my house,
My cattle and my dear ones,
And the lark said in her song
Often, often, often
Goes the Christ in the stranger's guise.
