The Great Composer

With a word He creates,

beautiful creation bursting forth

from a thundering and melodious voice

— lifegiving sound.

Then, with divine noise as its parent,

creation makes tune

to honor the One who made it

— creation sings.

Waves crash like cymbals,

birds chirp like flutes,

leaves rustle like tambourines

— hear a great song.

With beauty and power He composes,

delightful creation songs are born

by the composer who creates composing ones.
