Composer Notes
Pr

In Letters and Papers from Prison, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, prophet and martyr, writes:
There remains an experience of incomparable value…to see the great events of world
history from below; from the perspective of the outcast, the suspects, the maltreated,
the powerless, the oppressed, the reviled—in short, from the perspective of those who
suffer…to look with new eyes on matters great and small.
Where there is no vision, the people perish. When values are lost, our lives become a desert. In a
more ancient letter (Hebrews 11:16, 10) St. Paul calls us citizens “of a city whose architect and
builder is God.” Across the world are people who make the city of God visible within human
history, if only for a brief moment. Yet these moments enable us to trace a path of light. In
Revelation 7:17, St. John tells us “…the Lamb…will be their shepherd and show them the way
to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” Faith in Christ
changes our priorities and in him nothing is lost. God collects our tears in his wineskin (Psalm
56:8) to wipe them away for ever.
