A Heavenly Instrument

9/7/07

I think I heard God’s voice tonight
Through a heavenly instrument
Singing strophes of such delight
That all the veils of night were rent
As beauty stole upon the heart
And peace to human hearts was lent.
Such stillness gathered in the air
A music to bring the high Gods down
And move the mortal mind to prayer
And we in consecration grown
To witness such divine event.
