First God made a flute of reed<br />

And blew a soulful melody<br />

Singing in ink of His need<br />

Of one note to plant as a seed<br />

That note’s the flute, the flute’s in you<br />

The world’s life-line’s a heart that’s true<br />

Through which all’s made and all’s made new<br />

Your soul’s a hole God’s blowing through<br />

The reed is weak and full of fear<br />

It shudders when the wind appears<br />

But when it’s plucked and hollowed out<br />

It can sing a king to tears<br />
