MUSIC:
In Hebrew, the pictograph (ancient letter form) of NUN = a fish.
Therefore I designed flitting fast movements of the chorus melody,
like a tiny fish swimming fast back and forth. Entire music writing time:
About 1/2 hour. I found a pattern of notes I liked and just kept switching the order.
Like that little fish switching its tale as at swims. GOD's idea!
THE LYRICS:
Formatted
into a song meter in about 15 minutes
on the gym elliptical machine.
I made a few changes as I typed...
to include the scripture reference
more often for this short, simple song....
But I noticed:
The
Holy Spirit led me to form the words in a way that like a poem,
lines
ended in logical rhyming words or the usual pseudo rhymes of songs
that most songwriters struggle to find. As always:
This song was
quickly guided by
our LORD God
per
His
Ephesians 3:20 empowering...
not
my skills.
Dedicated
to our God of Light & Life, 17 December 2014
