Even Humming Alone

 

...singing a new song

     before the throne...

         Revelation 14.3

(God did not create noise

   just to fill the silence,

      but incredible soundwaves

      that move our hearts,

another evidence of His Presence,

      and as a form of worship.

It is not the perfection of notes

             that matters,

but the outpouring of our souls,

    the music of the spheres.

Music is one of

     God's amazing creations

that cannot be explained away

        as human invention,

but intricately designed

     and divinely appointed.

What are we singing or playing

            before God?

There is no end

      to that kind of worship,

whether humming alone

     or a thousand voice chorus.

We come before the Almighty,

   and we cannot help but

           be changed by it.)

O LORD,

We come before You with music,

and You reveal Yourself

      through it.

Please help us to sing and play

         as a form of worship

         as a form of witness,

   alone

   or in the with-ness of others,

the words and phrases,

the notes and melodies,

    a gift You have given,

that we may return to You.
