MY CHURCH by ANONYMOUS

First Line: ON ME NOR PRIEST NOR PRESBYTER NOR POPE
Last Line: THE CHURCH IS MINE THAT DOES MOST CHRISTLIKE DEEDS
Subject(s): CHRISTIANITY;
On me nor Priest nor Presbyter nor Pope,
Bishop nor Dean may stamp a party name;
But Jesus, with his largely human scope,
The service of my human life may claim.
Let prideful priests do battle about creeds,
The church is mine that does most Christlike deeds.
