O brother of the Rock of our Church,
you who brought him to our Lord,
you who were crucified
on the Cross of our Savior,
who shed your blood
freely for His cause…
you who thirsted for His coming
and welcomed Him so readily
into your life –
bring us also to the Messiah’s side
and pray we shall receive Him
as well as your brother has done;
pray we, too, will abandon our boats,
our moorings in this world,
to follow the Christ
along the way He leads,
even apart from home and family.
Brothers to the Son pray we become,
accomplishing the Father’s will
with our lives;
capture us in His net this day
that we too might stand in His light
with all the redeemed of Israel.
