Ye of little faith, you're welcome here
On this day of fasting, faith, and prayer.
May we attempt together to atone,
Knowing well that we in sin are one.
If you come but once a year, at least
Please take a smidgeon with you when you leave:
Perhaps a shard of beauty, or a word
Uniting you with us until the world
Returns you next year safe to this, your home.
