The title of George W. Bush's 1999 autobiography, A Charge to Keep, come from the hymn "A Charge to Keep I Have," written by Charles Wesley. A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky. To serve the present age, My calling to fulfill; O may it all my powers engage To do my Master's will! A painting by W.H.D. Koerner called, A Charge to Keep, was inspired by the hymn. Bush received the painting as a gift from his friends Joe and Jan O'Neill. It hung in Bush's Texas Governors office, and now hangs in the Oval Office. Bush says that this painting reminds him that he is there to serve the nation and not self interests and that the President must set goals bigger than political parties. |
