Where Thee Is

poem by: Roxanne Dubarry
Written on Jun 22, 2026

Where there are lost souls,
let us spread the gospel of
Jesus Christ;
Where there is hatred, let us
show love.

Where there is suffering,
and grief, let us show mercy,
and compassion.
Where there is loneliness
let provide companionship
and friendship.

Where there is sickness, let
us pray for health and provide
healthcare.
Where there is ignorance, 
let us provide education.

Where there is hunger,
let us provide food.
Where there are homeless--
let us provide decent shelter.

Where there is disagreement,
let us peacefully settle our
different differences.
When there is talk of war,
let us pray for and preach
peace.
