PORTRAITS OF PEOPLE - Caiphas' Servant

He was just the servant

Of the man who’d have Christ killed;

But when Peter tried to defend our Lord,

It was the slave’s blood he spilled.

Jesus did not say to him,

“You got what you deserved.”

Instead, He put that ear back on

Healing every vessel and nerve.

Portraits of people for whom Jesus cared.

He’s called us to follow Him and His compassion share.

From the song “Portraits of People” by Karen Sue Hale
