Consider the Lilies #Music

1. Consider the lilies.
They don’t toil or spin.
They open their petals
So the Light can come in!
They live every day
In such splendor arrayed!
Are we not more worthy than they, than they?
Are we not more worthy than they?

2. Consider our Father,
As below, so above,
Who created the lilies
In beauty and Love!
We can live every day
In His splendor arrayed!
Are we not more worthy than they, than they?
Are we not more worthy than they?

A song written for
Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Petals.

Recorded with 2 Spirit Flutes crafted by High Spirits Flutes. Both are tuned in 432HZ. They are the bass in E minor and mid A minor flutes. These are so beautiful!

Also Koshi Ignis/Fire chime, Koshi Terra/Earth chime, Rhythm Rock shaker, pear branch Little Spirit shaker, ukulele, and voice. Yes, I sing in this one! I don’t sing often enough, but I’m working to change that.

For a related song and the New Testament reference for both, have a listen to
Your Father Knows.

I do hope you enjoy this!

Sun and Moon Improv #Music

Download “Sun and Moon Improvisation” Mp3

Here is an improvisation played on alto recorder in the pentatonic scale. Music Therapist Christine Stevens calls the major pentatonic scale the solar scale, while the minor pentatonic scale is lunar. I like these descriptions, and this improv evokes the sun and moon using these scales. You’ll hear the Egg of Creation shaker as well.

I hope you enjoy this relaxing improvisation! Please feel free to share your thoughts!
