The Call by George Herbert

Performed by

George Herbert

About

This poetic call to God uses all the tools of lyric to overwhelm the heart.

Herbert achieves this effect primarily through the exquisitely tight structure of the poem–the steady and ordered repetition of words branching out into independent phrases all then balanced together. This can best be seen...

The Call Annotated

Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life :
Such a Way, as gives us breath:
Such a Truth, as ends all strife:
And such a Life, as killeth death.

Come, my Light, my Feast, my Strength:
Such a Light, as shows a feast:
Such a Feast, as mends in length:
Such a Strength, as makes his guest.

Come, my Joy, my Love, my Heart:
Such a Joy, as none can move:
Such a Love, as none can part:
Such a Heart, as joys in love.
