	Story Behind the Song The words of Cardinal Bernardin's prayer are clear. It is a call to "give to God what is God's"....our hearts. A beautiful reiteration of the old catechism truth: KNOW, LOVE, and SERVE. Greatly inspiring to me. I wrote it in several afternoons in 2001. Recorded it 10/11/02, at Susquehanna University with the help, encouragement and equipment of Dr. Patrick Long. One take...so far. Lyrics Lord of the harvest, Your Word finds a home in our hearts, calls us into community and invites us to generous service of the human family. Bless with courage and spirit Your priestly people, called to full participation in the one Body of Christ. May many choose to respond in public service to Your call offered in Jesus' name. Amen.
