Sunrise Symphony
The past few mornings we are being treated to being greeted bymuch appreciated welkin symphoniesafter a long stretch of gloomy daybreaks!
An introduction starts to play from welkin symphonies...
An introduction starts to play from welkin symphoniesIt fills the threshold of Today with thrilling harmoniesAs melodies of blush and gold unfold the hailing sphereWhile we, with rapt’rous gaze behold night’s shadows disappear
We lift our eyes above the stage of trouble’s wage unfurledTo feast upon the music page God hoists above the worldTo bow on morning’s grandstand with stutter-uttered ‘oh my’And join the worship anthems no lyrics can satisfy
Hope celebrates its anchor as pink hallelujahs pealJoy’s chipped cup runneth over with mercy’s refurbished zealFaith transcends fear’s foreboding as welkin symphonies spillTo drown dread’s dismal goading with thunders of ‘peace, be still’
Exaltation’s hymn overflows before our lifted gazeThe introduction crescendos and sets our sights ablazeEarth and sky’s voices coalesce, they cannot be ignoredIn the Beauty of Holiness we worship you, oh LORD
