Forever Songs

In the quiet of the morning A bird began singing. She awakened the dawn of the day. Her praises came ringing What a beautiful, beautiful voice And I whispered a prayer of praise. Adorable children strolled to the stage To present their program and sing. The joy they exuded made everyone smile What glad tidings of Christmas they bring. What beautiful, beautiful voices As tears for this gift, ran free. With just her guitar and a song about colors, My mother would offer a song. She sang about God and the witness she gave Made the family too, sing along. What a beautiful, beautiful voice, Even now, my cup runneth over. I went to a funeral where a young man sang That a “Friend is a friend forever.” He meant every word of this solemn song As loved ones all gathered together. What a beautiful, beautiful voice Through his tribute, God’s presence was there. I went to the opera, such glamorous fair! As a tenor of fame filled the hall. His voice was tremendous, sent chills up my spine, There were shouts of ovation from all. What a beautiful, beautiful voice. His tone, like an angel stirred wonder. Now imagine the blessing we read about Jesus Who takes great delight in His own. Who can fathom the gift or the power we’ll know When He sings over us from His throne! What a beautiful, beautiful voice! All creation, rejoice! He is Lord. By TSV The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.” Zaphaniah 3:17
