Stevie Wonder has
an album, "Songs in the Key of Life." It is very clear to me that the
metaphor of life being a song is very appropriate.
When you hear birds sing in
the morning, it reminds you that life is a song. When your hear lyrics on the radio,
iPod, or on any media, you feel the rhythm of a song. When you find yourself in
the need of a mood change, a song can transport your spirit to another place.
The Book of Psalms contains the songs of the Hebrew people. One scripture makes
this observation, "how can you sing the songs of Zion in a strange land?" The strength of
our people has been our ability to see, to play and to record our songs even in
a strange land or a strange place. From Go-Go to Gospel we have a rich legacy
of understanding that life is a song.
