Christ has no body but yours

Christ has no body but yours,
No hands or feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he looks,
Compassion on this world,
Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good,
Yours are the hands with which he uses to bless the world,
Yours are the hands,
Yours are the feet,
Yours are the eyes,
You are his body.

Christ has no body now but yours,
No hands no feet on earth but yours
Yours are the eyes with which he looks Compassion on this world,
Christ has no body on earth but yours
