Invitation

I believe love lasts forever
Though lovers seldom do
And I believe that part of me is me
And part is you
Though there’ve been times when I was sure
I’d never love again
Somehow things they turn full circle
And even losers win

Once I believed for each of us
There was a single special one
Though lately I’d be hard-pressed to say
Just where that notion’s from
‘Cause I met so many so right for me
And yet somehow so wrong
That I learned to take my love in bits and pieces
As I went along

So won’t you love me for the moment
Love me for the day
And I’ll love you all I can
Until it’s time to go away
I don’t claim to be the answer
To your fondest fantasy
I just want to be a part of you
Won’t you be a part of me

Yes, I believe love lasts forever
Now don’t you really too
And I believe that part of me is me
And part is you
Though there were times when I was sure
I’d never love again
Somehow things have turned full circle
And even losers win


So won’t you love me for the moment
Love me for a day
And I’ll love you all I can
Until we go our separate ways
I don’t claim to be the answer
To your fondest fantasy
I just want to be a part of you
Won’t you be a part of me

Yeh' I just want to be a part of you
won't you be a part of me

Truth for us is not a system of thought. Truth is not created. Truth is. Christ is the truth. Truth is a person. Truth is not limited within our comprehension of it. Truth transcends us; we can never come to a full comprehension of Truth.

The search for Truth is the search for Christ…

Truth is the Mystery of the person of Christ; and because it is a person, the Mystery is inseparably linked with the event: the event of the encounter. Mystery and event are one…

The Mystery, for the Orthodox mind, is precise and austere reality. It is Christ, and it is to meet Christ.
