Music is in all growing things; And underneath the silky wings Of smallest insects there is stirred A pulse of air that must be heard; Earth's silence lives, and throbs, and sings.

I guess people naturally try to find meaning in music.

God will help us become the people we are meant to be, if only we will ask Him
