Author: Joseph Johnson Hymnal: Voices Together #539 (2020) Meter: 8.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God speaks to us in bird and song, in winds that drift the clouds along, above the din and toil of wrong, a melody of love. 2 God speaks to us in far and near, in peace of home and friends most dear, from faded past and present clear, a melody of love. 3 God speaks to us in darkest night, by quiet ways through mornings bright, when shadows fall with evening light, a melody of love. 4 O Voice divine, speak unto me, beyond the earth, beyond the sea, and let me echo joyfully a melody of love.
