Many of the themes of those psalms are David crying out to God for answers, but always ending with him relying on God for strength and hope. Reading that chapter and the lyrics of Hymlume's song touched me to the core of my being.Christa McKanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-16918377563700882572012-08-30T23:06:16.730-04:002012-08-30T23:06:16.730-04:00That is simply magical.

I had a bit of trouble picturing Hymlume, but as a great author (I think it was C.S. Lewis) once said, "We can only imagine what we know."<br />And of course how could I, a mortal, understand something as fey as the moon herself? :)<br />"Ordenel Hymlume Nive" was a powerful song. The way it was taken from everyone's perspectives was intriguing. It's nice to know Eanrin can sing something other then mushy sonnets.<br />And I REALLY appreciated the itty-bitty glimpse we get into Eanrin's mind..and the memory therein.<br />I look forward to learning more about the Spheres and the songs they sing.Hannahnoreply@blogger.com
