Urbana

tight jeans getting tighter, loosen up your belt
the problems of america: more passively noticed than felt.
church, have we lost our fire? is there no global appeal?
while we sit on our butts and watch football, 
the faithful are rewarded for zeal.
rewarded with plentiful harvest, 
rewarded with fullness of soul
while we have such great loads of nothing
we seek stuff instead of the goal, which
should be constantly pushing us forward,
constantly making us new -- 
have we lost all semblance of this calling?
Oh Father, make us more like You.
