Poem by Amy Carmichael

” Have I been so long time with thee,

and yet hast thou not known Me?”

“O my Master, I have known Thee

On the roads of Galilee.”

“Have I been so long time with thee

On the roads of Galilee,

Yet, My child, hast thou not known Me

Walking on the tossing sea?”

O My Master, I have known Thee

On the roads and on the sea”.

“Wherefore then hast thou not known Me

Broken in Gethsemane?

“I would have thee follow, know Me

Thorn-crowned, nailed upon the Tree.

Canst thou follow, wilt thou know Me,

All the way to Calvary?”

From her book “Gold Cord”

Amy Carmichael opened an orphanage and founded a mission in Dohnavur. She served in India for 55 years without furlough

“Give me the Love that leads the way
The Faith that nothing can dismay
The Hope no disappointments tire
The Passion that’ll burn like fire
Let me not sink to be a clod
Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God”

Missionary Quotations: Amy Carmichael2

“We profess to be strangers and pilgrims, seeking after a country of our own, yet we settle down in the most un-stranger-amy carmlike fashion, exactly as if we were quite at home and meant to stay as long as we could. I don’t wonder apostolic miracles have died. Apostolic living certainly has.” — Amy Carmichael

Missionary Quotations – Amy Carmichael1

amy carmWhat is the secret to great living? Entire separation to Christ and devotion to Him. Thus speaks every man and woman whose life has made more than a passing flicker in the spiritual realm. It is the life that has no time for trifling that counts.”
