THERE IS MUSIC

Music isn’t just around us. It’s inside of me and you.

Born with every heart that beats, there our whole lives through.

Music is blind. It doesn’t care what color we are.

It starts the moment life begins in each and every soul.

It touches every part of us to make our spirits whole.

Make us whole!

There is music! Can you hear it? There is music!

If you can hear your heart, then you can know the part of you that’s music.

In and out of us there’s music!

It’s a part of me and you, and when it’s shining through, then there is music.

Hear the voice that sings inside of you.

Hear the heart that beats the time.

Growing like a seed we plant, nurtured to its prime.

Music is blind. It doesn’t care how wealthy we are.

It starts the moment life begins in each and every soul.

It touches every part of us to make our spirits whole. Make us whole!

There is music! Can you hear it?

If you can hear your heart, then you can know the part of you that’s music.

In and out of us there’s music!

It’s a part of me and you, and when it’s shining through, then there is music.
