Here is a text I was reading in my morning devotions a few weeks ago. As I was reading it, it occurred to me that this could easily be a song, so I thought about it for a couple of days, and then set about composing a melody for it. This is what I came up with! I love Paul's writing, and this text a pleasure to compose music for.

For though I be free from all men,
yet have I made myself servant unto all,
that I might gain the more.

And unto the Jews
I became as a Jew,
that I might gain the Jews;
to them that are under the law,
as under the law,
that I might gain them that are under the law;

To them that are without law,
as without law, (being not without law to God,
but under the law to Christ,)
that I might gain them that are without law.

To the weak became I as weak,
that I might gain the weak:
I am made all things to all men,
that I might by all means save some.

First Corinthians nine, nineteen through twenty-two.
