Feast of the Confession of Saint Peter the Apostle
Commemoration of Amy Carmichael, Founder of the Dohnavur Fellowship, 1951
From subtle love of softening things,From easy choices, weakenings,(Not thus are spirits fortified;Not this way went the Crucified;)From all that dims Thy Calvary,O Lamb of God, deliver me.
Give me the love that leads the way,The faith that nothing can dismay,The hope no disappointments tire,The passion that will burn like fire;Let me not sink to be a clod:Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God!
... Amy Carmichael (1867-1951), written in India, 1912, Gold Cord: the story of a fellowship, Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1952, p. x
