Sleeps a song in all things 

Verse 1: Joseph von Eichendorff (1788 - 1857)

Verses 2 + 3: DDT 27:35, 36, 37

*****

Sleeps a song in all things

that dream on and on

and the world begins to sing

you only hit the magic word

*****

Think the music of heaven

where the angels' bliss

would be one with God's guidance

the pure spirit in eternity

****

When the heavenly concert resounds

it bears witness to God's presence

When spiritual beauty makes music

it sounds like God's concert' so tender
