We Walk Because They Walk


Such colorful feet
Running from altar to doors
Taped to the carpet

Each foot had a name
Of a walker for hunger
With sponsors who care

Church people gathered
On a beautiful fall day
At a local park

There were red balloons
Plus CROP Walk signs and stickers
And the band played songs

Walkers registered
Photos snapped, announcements made
Prayer started us off

We filled the greenbelt
As we walked because they walk
Our purpose in mind

A 6-mile CROP Walk
Compared to walking for food,
Clean water and fuel

We had it easy
Walking on greenbelt and streets
We walk for the poor

Jesus taught us love


So we walk to end hunger
One step at a time
