The Sacred Harp La

La
* *
song leader takes center square grace bestows
He faces the altos tenors behind
Basses left trebles right Spirit bellows
Lesson for today called out and timed
as trained and untrained voices collide
Church harmony is ringing like a bell
Seems like the praises fill then flow worldwide
an amazing pure brook songs fill the well
Drawing as chords rise and fall even more
Press into the hall as the voices swing
Sacred harps delight hearts are restored
Messengers for heaven joy’s double spring
Sounds of love a glow hearts flow through the air
settling for pause this an all-day affair
