Can you guess who wrote this prayer? Too late have I loved You, O Beauty so ancient, O Beauty so new, too late have I loved You! In my weakness I ran after the beauty of the things You have made. You were with me, and I was not with You. The things You have made kept me from You - the things that would have no being unless they existed in You! You have called, You have cried out, and You have pierced my deafness. You have radiated forth, You have shined out brightly, and You have dispelled my blindness. You have sent forth Your fragrance and I have breathed it in, and I long for You. I have tasted You, and I hunger and thirst for You. You have touched me, and I ardently desire Your peace. Saint Augustine of Hippo (354-430) Bishop and Doctor of the Church Memorial August 28, 2013
