Prayer: A prayer by Teresa of Avila

Christ has no body now by yours.
No hands, no feet on earth but yours.
Yours are the eyes
through which he sees compassion on the world.
Yours are the feet
with which he walks to do good.
Yours are the hands
with which he blesses all the world.

Yours are the hands.
Yours are the feet.
Yours are the eyes.
You are his body.

Christ has no body now on earth but yours.
