Some poems have a musical quality that is better sensed, I think, when heard rather than read. Something about sound of the words when they are carefully spoken adds a new dimension to the meaning. Charlotte Mason’s poem “The Charge” is one such poem.

Our Lord had said, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” Then He answered His own prayer. Seventy laborers were sent out to the field in a most unusual manner. That mystery is illuminated in verse. Why not listen to it today, read by Antonella Greco. Hear it here.
