Orchestra of God

"Begin the music, strike the tambourine, play the melodious harp and lyre" (Psalm 81:2 NRSV).

Orchestra of God

Make every act of courage a chorus.

Each service you perform a symphony.

Make each new day a testament.

Each moment you live a rhapsody.

Make the truth your crown of thorns.

Each word becomes a melody.

Make righteousness your wooden cross.

Each cause you embrace a hymn of praise.

Make every wrong you right your penance.

Each good deed you do a clanging gong.

Make your life a perfect harmony.

Each thought and every hope a trumpet and a drum.

Life in this world is like an orchestra.

Each of us a beautiful instrument of God.
