Gather up the fragments

 

 

 

Gather up the fragments

 

Gather your grapes unto the winepress

Keep all your goods in one place

Fasten every idea to thine heart

Watch steadfastly over your loaves of bread

Preserve your sustenance

Scatter not your resources

Refine your talent

Arrange the union of your confidences

Compass your infirmities

Speak with one voice

Herd your sheep within one stall

Consider the single-mindedness of the serpent when she beguiles her prey

Be disciplined as the eagle that swoopeth from above

Fill your barn with all your goods

Of the teachings of Jesus Christ let none escape the receptacle

Let he that hath ears listen closely

Hear the words of the Lord; engrave them on your heart

See that ye remove not your eyes from the place of salvation

Bind the sermons of Jesus together

Genesis to Revelation boasts many tongues; yet the glory of the Lord is the summary of their eloquence

The books of the Bible are several; see that ye draw from them the truth of God about God

Let thine eye be single

Gather up the fragments

That nothing be lost
