The Face of Christ.

Here is a song I have dedicated to John Paul II - The text was inspired by his apostolic letter Novo Millennio Ineunte (6 January 2001)

Lyrics:

Face of Christ

Copyright 2003 Justin Stroh

Your voice is calling all to leave mediocrity
Rejecting shallow religiosity
Your Call is training in holiness
Through the prayer of the Church

I must keep my gaze
Upon the face of Christ
Growing deeper with You
In a faith that proclaims life
I will cast my net, upon Your command
And put out into the deep

The fragments of our culture, Yearn for Your touch
We need Your presence at the heart of all we do
Your call is mercy and informed conscience
Discovering Your face anew!

I must wait upon Your grace to give the call
Lest I toil all night, even though I might give all!
