Music Heals



When the world weighs heavy on my mind
And sadness lingers, hard to leave behind
I turn to melodies that light the way
Gospel tunes that lift me up and say
Oh, the power of music, it's a gift
From the lows to the highs, it gives me a lift
Love songs soothe my weary soul
In every note, I find my role
Through the strums of a folk guitar
I find solace, near or far
The joy it brings, the peace it sends
In music, my heart always mends
With each chord, a new emotion blooms
In melodies, my spirit resumes
The time of my life through music found
In every beat, I am unbound
So when darkness lingers in the air
I know that music will be there
To lift me up and carry me through
To brighter days, old and new
