30 Days of Thanksgiving, Day 29: Music

Today I am giving thanks to God for the gift of music and how it both speaks to and speaks for the human soul. For the great Hymns of the Church to contemporary Christian music; from choruses, testimony songs, praise & worship songs, and words of Scripture set to music—I am thankful for all of it. For the voice and for the instrument: strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, electronic and digital. For classical, southern Gospel, country, bluegrass, jazz, blues, do-wop, and rock-‘n’-roll; for the Gregorian chant and for the orchestra—I like it all (or almost all). I am thankful for the song writers and for the artists who perform/sing/play the songs. Thank you, Father, for the music.
