Musica animam tangens (# 170).
Joshua Shank
Poem by Ryan Newstrom


musica animam tangens Maria vitae effundens
Flumina cor liberantia omnes amore amantia
Musica sonans resonans Implens meam essentiam
Meam innudat animam Velut fluctibus
montem submersum Ut tangam Deum
Music touching; Exhaling its breathless oceans of life
Currents that free hearts giving love
to All that open the sounds that fill
The mountain of my existence
And overflow my soul to touch God.
