Saint Augustine Quotes, Faith Quotes, Hunger And Thirst Quotes

O Lord my God, tell me what you are to me. Say to my soul, I am your salvation. Say it so that I can hear it. My heart is listening, Lord; open the ears of my heart and say to my soul, I am your salvation. Let me run toward this voice and seize hold of you. Do not hide your face from me: let me die so that I may see it, for not to see it would be death to me indeed.

And you beat back the weakness of my sight, blazing upon me with your rays, and I trembled in love and in dread.
