Excerpt from Singing Through Life With God
One day I was enjoying a walk though one of the several rich resident districts of Cleveland, Ohio. It was late spring-time and every home had its own entrancing surroundings of trees, shrubs, lawns and exquisite flowers. Enchantment of all the senses was in the air. One seemed to be in fairyland. Suddenly, I turned into a less pretentious street. In a moment my eyes fell upon a hedge of bridal wreath in full bloom. The surroundings were commonplace, compared with what I had just been enjoying, yet, instinctively my heart cried out at the glorious beauty of this simple flower: How wonderfully it sings its song of praise to God. And with a force that was startling in its power and suddenness there sprang into my innermost being the idea: All Nature sings its heart out to God during its life. Why cannot man do the same? I felt he could - therefore, he should do so, and then and there the title and purpose of this book was born: Singing through Life with God.
