Christ Has No Body

Photo: Mr. Dickie (The Sacred Heart, Grotto of Lourdes, Emmitsburg, MD)

Christ has no body now on earth but yours,

No hands but yours,

No feet but yours,

Yours are the eyes through which he is to look out

Christ's compassion to the world

Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good;

Yours are the hands with which he is to bless men now.

Teresa of Avila
