Papa's Post: The Shepherd's Call

We have been so tired and weary
We have walked for many a mile
All the world's so dull and dreary
And we long to rest a while.

But we hear our Shepherd calling
All of us who've gone astray
We must act and stop our stalling
He's the Truth, the Life, the Way.

        Cursillistas one and all
        Yes, the "die is cast"
        We will follow but His call
        We have shorn our past!

We renounce the devil's pleasures
And we let our voices ring
That we seek above all treasures
But the love of Christ the King.

He is rest for all the weary
He is drink for all who thirst
All the world's no longer dreary
For all those who seek Him first!




(The Rainbow, Oct., 1966)
