Is There a Music?

Is there a music to the listening ear

Unrecognized as ether to the eye,

Is there a sound that every sound contains

Whose music guides our human destiny?

Is there an ode divine we cannot hear

Of which our lives are but a brief refrain,

Is there a Singer of celestial song

Whose music can assuage our human pain

And carry us upon its silver waves,

Melt a frozen heart or move a star,

Refashion us to sacred harmonies

That we may become what we truly are.
