Music is one medium that everyone can relate.  Whether it is rock and roll, jazz, country and western, bluegrass, classical, or rap, music can bring people together.  It can unite people, if just for a brief moment.  Music is so powerful that it will stop parades, change lives, or destroy nations.

 

Music is very simple.  There is a melodic line (instruments) and words.  The words are written out of experience.  That experience could be written out the loss of a loved one, love, the loss of love, celebration, broken heart, anger, or praise.  The composing of the melodic line is based upon the words.  Combining the two can bring an explosive experience.  Songs like Amazing Grace, Go Rest High upon That Mountain, Red Solo Cup, Kingdom Man, It is Well with My Soul, The Star Spangled Banner, and countless others have changed lives, inspired revival, healed hearts, or just provided entertainment and laughter.

 

David wrote hundreds of songs.  They all had on main object, God.  Everything was centered on God.  Every word, every note, was all about God.  Music was a powerful tool that he used to teach the nation of Israel about God, life, and following God.  Everything flowed out of David’s heart.  That is where music originates.

 

If you were to write a song, which is what you are doing now, what would it be?  What would be the words?  We are all writing a song are we not Beloved? 

Just a thought.  Pray about your song.
