Music what is it but not heavenly voices in syncopation
with nature.
glowing emotions that cast a line out
into the space of heart
catching your innermost open heart
clutching at kindred spirit

then he soars up

and then down

up again
like a climb into the netherlands
we can only hope for
but God has left us with music to touch us
with what it may have been like
before the fall.

and then we go on

you oh lord have given me this
and I can touch you
in the supreme light of your music I can touch you and I love you
sooooto the limit of the Everest
to the limit of the Everest is
that why we climb
because we would hope a glimpse of YOU

oh Lord I would so
and do so.
