Think of songs that catch your heart, that evoke an emotional response
A song that you love to play when doing housework that makes you kick up your feet and get things done
A song that you wave your arms in the air to, hoping nobody sees you
A song that makes you think of happy times and smile wistfully
A song that makes you think of happy times and smile sadly and shed a quiet tear
A hurting song of loss and longing
A song that makes you want to hit the dance floor and lose yourself in the moment
A song from your childhood that still brings joy to your heart
A song that is so beautiful and pure that you could almost cry as you listen intently, hairs on the back of your neck rising
A song you can’t help but sing along to
A tune with no words that catches in your mind and has you humming it all day
A song with words that speak to you and strike chords
The ending chords of a religious piece that sing out an exultant “AMEN!”
The cadence of words tumbling out smoothly in a good rap song
A song whose rhythms and base make you feel sexy
A song that riles passion or rage, making you want to stomp around and pump your fists in the air, or bang your head.
A song that comforts and soothes as your head hits the pillow, one that ushers you into the subconsious/unconscious.
That’s what my faith feels like to me.
