Product Description
An epically beautiful choral composition. Music by Kevin G. Pace. Text by Mary Ann W. Snowball.
Text:
Although I bestow all my goods to feed the poor and lone,
Without the gift of charity, I will never own
the right of oneness to be sealed to Father up above,
And with my Savior, Jesus Christ, unite in perfect love.
Until God distills purity, giv'n through the Holy Ghost,
I'll pray with all my energy for this inner Host.
Then to this Spirit I will cleave so God can live in me,
And so be clothed with purest love... beloved charity.
My holy conferral to love each fellowman I see
comes as a gift from God above, for He first loved me.
And now I'm filled with pain and more, with sorrow and with tears,
All for the welfare of lost souls. I feel my Savior near.
Sweet oneness within fills my heart; I feel my flesh consumed.
An entity has swelled my soul and entered to bloom.
For others, now, true charity can manifest my love,
All given from the grace of Christ, and Father up above. bove.
Chorus:
Charity for humankind is my gift with love divine.
One in love and one in grace promises Christ's sacred face.
