The Saints I Know

The saints I know today
Were a little melancholy
And a little bit of a bore.
Burdened by overworking
And grieved by doing good.
They think, and meditate,
Wondering if their good deeds
Are a crime. For they seem punished
By doing welldoing, and I understand
Satan wishes to cause our ministries
To fail, and give up and feel sad
By means of welldoing.
Let Charity revive our souls
And know that good is not a sin
And that by doing it, you will
Attain to life everlasting
And be with Hephzibah.
For shyly was Don on the trail;
And Sam was a bit despondent;
And I a bit avoidant;
The Pastor a bit overwhelmed.
Let Charity refresh our souls
Through one another's company.
