Music

Sacred texts, secular art Oratory, verse, harmony in part Only this, the noblest art Takes a soul's stirrings, the Heart's songs and echoes Every emotion in the human experience Tortured souls, angelic praise Human sounds and otherworldly tones Echoing love, pain, ecstasy, death Sounding the call to action, to war Admiring the beauty all around Verse after verse, strain after strain God endowed through singing of hymns Everyman stories, beginning to end Basal desires, emotional pains Earth-stilling melodies, harmonic delight Always with you, no matter what age Singers, artists, composers, as one unite Tearing asunder, your heart as the stage.
