In My Heart

One of the rewrites in the new Sing It Forward.  I love the tune, Tallis’ Canon, but could no longer sing the familiar words set to it.  These bring the song, once again, back into our repertoire.

In My Heart TALLIS’ CANON Deep in my heart, I yearn to find, to feel, amid life’s quaking jar, that there abides a truth of mine I cannot shake, and have not marred; the will to move beyond my hurt; the pow’r to feel with others, give; the strength to learn before I die a wisdom I can truly live. Be strong my heart, though chaos rage. Bring to the din, thoughts sound and sage that offer gentle, sweet control and work to make the broken whole. gretta vosper, 2013 Inspired by the poetry of Matthew Arnold 1822-1888,
