Confession of Faith (on Music to Praise God)

God,
You are the origin of the world,
And you are its culmination.
You created all visible things,
Even love, joy and music.
Jesus,
You came to us
To share the reality of our life:
With its different melodies,
Music of joy, one in minor character.
You came to bring us new agreements,
new rhythms.
Mind,
You, the breath of our melodies,
You push us to life.
You live in us,
You sing praise to our hearts.
And you connect us to your Church,
Brothers and sisters who unite their voices.
