Vocation Verse I'll Be a Priest by Constance Ellis TAKEN FROM GOD IS WITH US, 1948 When I was just a little boy, A sailor I would be And travel 'round the world a bit, And sail the broad blue sea. Then standing on the corner Watching autos go and stop When they were told, I thought I'd like To be a traffic cop. But on the day I was confirmed God's message was quite clear That I should give myself to Him Without a single fear. No other answer could I give, Both heart and mind said "Yes". To God Who died to save my soul,--- How could I give Him less? I never thought I'd be a Priest, But now it is my plan If that is what God wants of me When I become a man.
