Notable and Quotable

And the night shall be filled with music
And the cares, that infest the day,
Shall fold their tents, like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.

–Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)

  1. Forever Anglican says:

    Indeed, let the night be filled with music for all God’s faithful ones. And let the cares of the day vanish before God’s forgiving love and grace. Thank you Kendall Harmon for posting this poem. It spoke to this tired soul who needs to hear the sound of music at the end of the day. Forever Anglican

  2. DonGander says:

    In both the secular and in the spiritual, cares and music do not co-exist.

    May our music, today, lift up He who carries our burdens and gives us joy.
