The Worship Quote of the Week for (04/06/1999):

"The Call"
Happy Easter! Today's WORSHIP QUOTE is a wonderful poem by George Herbert, an
early 17th century pastor/poet.


THE CALL

Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life:
Such a Way, as gives us breath:
Such a Truth, as ends all strife:
And such a Life as killeth death.

Come, my Light, my Feast, my Strength:
Such a Light, as shows a feast:
Such a Feast, as mends in length:
Such a Strength, as makes his guest.

Come, my Joy, my Love, my Heart:
Such a Joy, as none can move:
Such a Love, as none can part:
Such a Heart, as joyes in love.

- George Herbert (1593-1633)

[Perhaps you know the wonderful setting of this poem by Ralph Vaughan
Williams.]

Have a great week,
