The Sea Rolls On

Gazing off the coast from Doolin

“The Sea Rolls On”

Oh, the sea rolls on like our God in heaven above

He goes on and on, never leaving, never tiring

Oh, the mighty Love of God reaching down to us

Oh, the sea rolls on like our God in heaven above

c 2012 Lisa Lyons, from the CD Flight of Freedom

The windswept sea near the fabled land of Tir na Nog

Drawn to the sea so that we can hear His voice.

Listen………………………………can you hear Him?  Slainte, Lisa

Can You Teach Joy?

I am a part time piano and voice teacher, and fall lessons begin today.  Little people, small individuals made by God will move in and out of my home, learning notes and rhythms and hand positions and breathing exercises.  But will they learn to love the gift of music, will they catch the joy that is in it by my words, by my smiles, by the encouragement that they really can do it?  Because that is my greatest desire…not that they come out of here as musical prodigies, with perfection oozing from their musical pores.  I want them to have joy when they play and sing; I hope that they feel closer to the God who loves them when they sit at the piano or sing in their room.  And only then will I be a good music teacher.  Slainte, Lisa

“Shout for joy to the Lord all the earth…come before him with joyful songs.” – Psalm 100:1-2

The Solace of a Sweet Song

The sound of a sweet voice singing a pleasing tune can bring amazing peace and solace to the soul.  This is Marianne Knight from Celtic Crossroads; she has an interesting mix of celtic & appalachian in her voice.  Enjoy “Ned of the Hill.”  It sounds better if you close your eyes and just listen.  Slainte, Lisa
