It is this decision of mastership which will deter- mine oneis life song, M Choice of Master Determines Life Songi His gentle fingers caress the ivory, a sweet melody sings from within. It begins so subtle, so sweet and slowly crescendos to an exciting climax. His fingers dance to the joyful song, the song which He himself created. It is beautiful because He touched it, exciting because of His own spirit. He gives it life. Another takes the Master's place, a new song pours forth, a song of dissonance and despair, filled with bitterness and pain. A melody exists; Harmonies and chords sound; yet throughout there is an awkwardness; it rings with hollow, bitter, sad cries. The tempo quickens n reaching a screaming climax. The haunting cry resounds, It tears my heart. Oh, Master, please return. Make my song joyful again, send hope into my cries, remove the awkwardness. I desire no other master. - Karen Roseberry - Photo by Suzanne RA Johnston Life Song 17
