Daily Affirmations - Day 2 - The Living Present: Anthems of Worship

Day 2: Anthems of worship

Come, let us worship and bow down

The sun has one kind of splendor, the moon another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor (1 Corinthians 15:41).

The sun shines in splendor, and blue is the sky,

The birds are all singing with joy as they fly;

The rivers are winding between wooded shores;

The whole world of nature its Maker adores.

Then lift up your voices, ye children of men,

Your hearts lift in anthems of worship again;

For we, too, will praise Him, the Father of love,

Who sendeth His power and grace from above

~ Franz Schubert ~ 1797-1828

Thanks to my 2nd form high school Music teacher, Arlene "Pinky" Lindsey, for the gift of this beautiful anthem of worship all those many years ago!
