“Stephen Starke is a modern-day Paul Gerhardt. . . . Both writers have truly remarkable poetic ability and sensitivity. They both accomplish what very few hymn writers throughout the history of the Church have been able to do: they write hymns that are worthy enough to endure as they become more beloved with each singing.” - Rev. Richard C. Resch
