..and those who were suffering from diseases and painful complaints of one kind or another, the possessed, epileptics, the paralysed, were all brought to him, and he cured them all Mt 4:24
HE DID THIS
Those sick, he healed
To the blind he gave sight.
The lame, he made, to walk.
Blessing the poor,
He secured for them a place
In God’s Kingdom.
The gift of healing,
He gave to us;
To continue his work
Conquering the demons
Of disease and poverty;
To create a world
Of human dignity
Jesus
He did this.

I love the amount of belief you've infused into the poem's tone. The repetition works great. As if chanting, don't forget: "He did this", and it is our human duty to continue the healing. ♥
