Music is My Prayer
When I find it hard to go on without those who’ve gone,
I turn to songs.
I mix a potion to heal my wounded heart by melding
lyrics to those songs.
When I seek to bring hope and peace to others,
I write words that rhyme.
But when I try to say how you touched my life,
I find the music is out of tune and out of time.
I know this dissonance surely can’t be right.
But I know One who can calm the troubled shores~
One who loves no matter what – and then even more~
One who says, “You don’t have to do it all alone.”~
I’ll stay with you through the darkness of the journey home.
I can feel when we’ve turned the corner into light.

I reach deep inside for the music that strengthens my heart.
I listen quietly, the prayers take rise, and the music starts.
With your memory close inside me for the lonely times,
I’ll come back again and sing to you the words I’ve I turned into rhymes.

Music is very healing❤
Love you Nana
OH , THIS IS SO TOUCHING . DAYS GET EASIER WHEN WE HAVE
MUSIC AND SONG TO EXPRESS OUR HURT AND JOY. THANKS
THESE WORDS
MOMMY(DOROTHY)
Yes, it is amazing what music can do for our mind and heart, I think that is the reasons God said He would send the Holy Spirit (Luke 12:12)to give you words to express what you are to say if you ask Him, so music has an art in it’s self, God has given the writers of music and he singing His words conform to our mind and heat what He wants us to hear and see with Spirit ears what God wants us to know and say, many times we can’t hear the message of a preacher, but we can always turn to music and here the message God has for us in the words of the song writer, so, when you need encouragement, turn on the music, it has a message for us !!!!
