They who sang the song loved the singer <br />Not his song, telling the story of eternity <br />Making fathers proud, mothers weep <br />As the music played on whispered by the wind <br />Endless with lilting serenade and pace <br />Joyous in depth of scale and gentle beat <br />Making trees bend and sway before the melody <br />Seas to churn, wave tossed giving homage <br />Nature knowing the sweetness of the singing <br />With Sun, Moon, and stars in chorus <br />Singing tribute to God's creation <br />And the sacrifice of his Son made for us <br />Who taught of truth and understanding <br />Preaching of a Universe of love supreme.<br /><br />Colin Ian Jeffery<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/they-who-sang-the-song/
