19267 - Father of the Church

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi

Father of the Church
is John Chryosostom
and a Master
recognized everywhere
in foreign doctrines also
because his preaching
overcame everything
because his work
in Antioch
with the elder the hermit
and in the cave
he touched also the court
of the Emperor
of Byzantium
so he organized
the missions
as an model
of self denial
and even if he was exiled
due to injustice
his relics
returned
to Constantinople
to the temple of Saint Apostles.
