The Sound of the Divine

How profound, the gift of music. Sometimes, I think life exists only to give ears to the beautiful sounds of this Earthly plane.

Oh graceful God, I repent, I no longer can lie

Could you ever forgive man as impious as I?

They say seeing's believing so I looked with my eyes

The senses deceived me! I didn't believe thee!

How senseless, how foolish, you sat in plain sight

Playing my heart strings with acoustic delight!

Love I had felt once, but heard it many times more

From modern down to classical, in so many forms!

Your hymns and your harmonies, your songs, your refrains!

In a world without music, who could bear any pain?
