AFFIRMATION: The Singer and the Song When long before time and the worlds were begun, when there was no earth and no sky and no sun, and all was deep silence and night reigned supreme, and even our Maker had only a dream… …the silence was broken when God sang the Song, and light pierced the darkness and rhythm began, and with its first birthcries creation was born, and creaturely voices sang praise to the morn. The sounds of the creatures were one with their Lords their harmonies sweet and befitting the Word; the Singer was pleased as the earth sang the Song, the choir of the creatures re-echoed it long. Though, down through the ages, the Song disappeared --- its harmonies broken and almost unheard – the Singer comes to us to sing it again, our-God-is-With-Us in the world now as then. The Light has returned as it came once before, the Song of the Lord is our own song once more; so let us all sing with one heart and one voice the Song of the Singer in whom we rejoice. To You, God, the Singer, our voices we raise, to You, Son Incarnate, we give all the praise, to You, Holy Spirit, our life and our breath, be glory for ever, through life and through death.
