Music Finds Me

Catching faint echoes from some distant valleys     
proclaiming the truths in life’s great mysteries -   
music finds me.              
                                                   
Playing through the pages of an old piano book,     
fingers finding the notes with nary a look -              
music finds me.       
 
Lifting my voice to His throne up in the sky,    
singing songs of praise with my joyful cry -
music finds me.

Humming away each ache from my tired body
in daily rituals under hot showery spray -
music finds me.

Crooning a lullaby to my new-born baby,
cooing him to deep slumber tenderly -
music finds me.

Tickled by the shrieks of a happy little child
getting tossed in the air in a picture mild -
music finds me.

Appealing for a place in your loving heart,
entreating that we must never be apart -
music finds me.

Loving you and catching your tender sigh
to know that I am alive and soaring high -
music finds me.
