My song was sung long before,
I sang my first note here.
It was composed for me alone,
long before I learned to sing.
Then why the discord, out of tune?
Why the sound of wrong notes sung,
    harshly in my heart?
They sound this way to me,
because I only hear the note,
       not the Symphony.
So, let me try to listen,
to hear the notes in tune.
For they are lessons I have
         learned,
from all the wrong notes sung.
Then my heart can learn to sing,
the song He wrote for me.
