I’ve always loved Hymn 412*. Maybe part of the reason is because the tune is the old Irish favorite, “O Danny Boy.” But I think another reason is because of what the words promise about the Christ. In some ways we might think of it as calling us together. But it’s also just calling! Have you ever stopped to think of how descriptive those lyrics are in defining what the calling of Christ does to and for you?
Consider how the Christ is reaching out to you by:
The Christ is calling you into God’s love. Sing that hymn to yourself and respond to the call of Christ.
