Jaroslav J. Vajda (pronounced VY-dah) has accumulated experience of being a parish pastor, a magazine editor, a book developer, a translator, a poet, and a hymn writer. Being a 1944 graduate of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, MO, has given Vajda the theological foundation for writing his hymns. Translating Slovakian stories and poems into English has taught him the structure of poetry. Being a keen observer of life has made it possible for Vajda to make his hymns into word pictures. Vajda’s hymns have provided congregations vehicles of expression in proclaiming the Gospel and in giving thanks to God the Creator of all. Composers enjoy the opportunities to explore and support with their music the riches of his texts.
