Sometimes it happens that you read or hear something you already know and it sounds new. That is what happened to me this week with the Gospel of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes. I felt touched inside and called to “feed,” invited to share life, right where I am… in the small things, the ones that are neither seen nor make noise…
And while listening to that invitation, I also remembered so many people who, without publicizing it, leave everything, change their plans, and give themselves completely.
I want to dedicate this song to my friend Iñigo, who in a few weeks is leaving for South Sudan to start from scratch a project for schooling children… (and knowing him, whatever is necessary…) Thank you Iñigo, for collaborating in the miracle of growing life where you go, always with a smile, like someone who knows Good Company… I take note and learn.
Every day I listen and watch….and every day it is the same
every day… if only I could alleviate so many fantasies..
every day I wonder if they are really my affairs
every day… a whole world… what can I do if there are so many walls….
Five loaves and two fishes is all I can give
five loaves and two fishes, Lord; I don’t know if it will be enough
and you smile and nod and make me thus conscious
that my loaves and fishes are actually seed
that is shared and flourishes, that if kept, it perishes
and that the sum of all satiates the one who suffers the most
LET YOU GIVE TO EAT
LET YOU GIVE TO EAT
THAT IN YOUR HANDS THERE IS LIFE
THAT IN YOUR HANDS THERE IS LIFE
THAT IS DESIRING TO GROW
I never thought that what I do or fail to do mattered
nor did I believe that a single gesture could make the world reborn
and you smile and nod and make me thus conscious
that love is powerful if one empties everything
to be a channel, without mud, without walls, without rubble,
of the Love that You pour out to feed everyone
LET YOU GIVE TO EAT
LET YOU GIVE TO EAT
THAT IN YOUR HANDS THERE IS LIFE
THAT IN YOUR HANDS THERE IS LIFE
THAT IS DESIRING TO GROW
