Music Healed Me

Music healed me,

reaching into my innermost thoughts.

My soul was touched by a violin

playing in the distance,

drawing me out of sadness,

replacing the emptiness with joy.

Vessels of God’s Grace

We are all vessels of God’s grace,

serving others,

across the human race.

Fill us up, Lord,

to over-brimming.

Pour us out, Lord.

Show us your face.

The hand of God

rests on us all.

He will pick us up when we fall.

Nostalgia

I had wild cravings in a forest,

while searching for the jam of life.

A clarinet plays in the distance.

Nostalgia of another time.
