Cornelius was a man of authority
A true leader of men
A centurion from Italy
An officer and a gentile-man
He had a spirit generous
And on serving God he was intent
An angel appeared and instructed him
A message to Simon Peter was to be sent
Though reluctant to heed the call
Peter too a vision received
Of unclean things he was to dine
An image that left him grieved
The Lord assured him all was made clean
And Peter took its meaning
And so to the Roman he set off
To witness the Holy Spirit’s harvest gleaning
