T.R. . . Sooooooooooo in agreement how some secular songs 'sing' forth outstanding words with music ~ ~ lyrics that can be turned into praise, ~~ there are words to music that can reflect our worship to our Lord moving great joy in praise to our God Who made music in the first place ~ ~ Those gifted with a musical voice I know appreciate the joy and loveliness realizing music was God's idea ~~ surely in Heaven such is heard perfectly without any darkness to interfere . . oh, how the soul and spirit can move through song and lyrics and music in joyous deep adulation unto our Glorious God ~~ At my age, I am an old 'timer' . . A song by Andy Williams, for instance so moves me when I listen to it, entitled: "I'll weave a lei of stars for you" . . I picture our Jesus flinging out beautiful new stars as though they were just stardust sparkling in His Heavenly 'galaxy'' just made for His children ~ gorgeous song and lyrics and tune ~ ~ Our God weaves His lei of stars for us, and we call Him 'the Fairest One' ~~ This was released as a secular song....but I sang it many times in church with the direction being towards praising the Lord....because "I'm everything I am because You loved me" Another Platter's song is called Heaven on Earth! Sing that one to Jesus! We are all called, oldies but goodies! TR Again, evening twilight speaks of fading light and ensuing darkness! An appropriate metaphor for the days we live in! TR
