"When he awoke, the song was there. Its melody beckoned and begged him to sing it. It hung upon the wind and settled in the meadows where he walked. He knew its lovely words and could have sung it all, but feared to sing a song whose harmony was far too perfect for human ear to understand. And still at midnight it stirred him to awareness, and with its haunting melody it drew him with a curious mystery to stand before an open window. In rhapsody it played among the stars. It rippled through Andromeda and deepened Vega’s hues. It swirled in heavy strains from galaxy to galaxy and gave him back his very fingerprint. “Sing the Song!” the heavens seemed to cry. “We never could have been without the melody that you alone can sing.” (The Singer by Calvin Miller)" |
"... Everything in all of creation, O Lord, is a unique song of yours. And when we sing our song—that song that is buried deeply within each of us—we are indeed being who we were made to be. We are in harmony (shalom) with the voice of our Maker. Help us to sing our song (Your song) clearly and fully this day. In the name of Jesus. Amen. (JLBranch) |

Oh, wow! I've not heard that Carpenters’ song in years but now I think it will be on repeat in my head for a while!
ReplyDeleteI like the other songs you chose and the book reflection readings for this week were all so very good. The one that really tugged on my heartstrings was “Prayer: Finding the Heart’s True Home” and the sweet story of the daddy singing the song over his little boy. To imagine our ABBA holding us in His arms and singing His song of love....oh, my, what a vision!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m looking forward to see what DANCE has in store for us!
Yes, the golden oldies on repeat (when you haven't heard them at all for quite some time, but when you do, they tend to get stuck in your head on replay - for you & me)!
DeleteGlad you were able to listen to the others too especially the 2nd before it was not available but I replaced with a couple of their others.
I liked the one you shared too, I'm surprised that the DANCE has you looking forward to it ... must have some fond memories tucked away in you - I know I do. I love to DANCE with or before our Father even when I'm not the best or the most fit but because He loves me even (just) as I am, I try to DANCE with a complete worshipful expression of movement & get so caught up in Him, I don't care if anyone else approves or not - and I really love to here outside where I have lots of free space. I never took DANCE but I sure love it!
same SONG for the DANCE:

(with Luther V again)
Actually I have two left feet and no grace when it comes to dancing. However I love to watch others dance! Even though I grew up in a non- dancing home, the songs at the end were just to painful to listen to this morning. Maybe I'll come back later and listen.
