General (Vol. 3)
God's Music
- May there be music fit for my true God
Where we combine to make the sweetest sound,
My dancing figures glittering and gay,
His timeless measure in the solid ground. - My strings well tuned not slack nor yet too taut
Responding to His ever perfect bow,
God's score set out in dazzling array,
The perfect finish with no hint of show. - In prayer and worship, action, service, love
May I exceed the comfortable stage
But not wind strings so taut that they will break,
Denying me the joy of the next page.
