Music.

The Jews have an old tradition that when
the world was done,
And God from His work was resting, He
called to Him, one by one
The shining troops Of the angels, and
showing the wonder wrought
The Master asked of His servants what
they Of the vision thought
Then one white angel, dreaming Ger the
marvel before him spread,
Bent low in humble obeisance, lifted his
voice, and said:
"One thing only is lacking-praise from
the newborn tongue,
The sound Of hallelsjah by the great
creation sung"
So God created music-the voices of land
and sea,
And the song of the stars revolving in
one vast harmony.
out Of the deep uprising, out from the
ether sent
The song of the destined ages thrilled
through the armament
So the rivers among the valleys, the
murmur of wind-swept hill,
The seas and the bird-thriled woodlands
utter their voices still,
Songs of stars and of waters, echoes of
vale and shore
The voice of primeval nature praising
Him evermore.
And the instruments men have fashioned
since time and the world were
young.
With gifted fingers giving the metal ana
wood a tongue,
With the human voice translating the
souls wild Joy and pain.
Have swelled the undying paean have
raised the immortal strainl
-Rubie T. Weyburn.
