Poetry- My Life is a Song

Notes may tarry
Low it seems
But soon rise
With he who redeems
Notes may stall
Mid stanza awhile
But triumphantly build 
To the Holy Child
Verse by verse 
A song is written 
Of a people lost 
A people forgiven
The refrain repeats
Graces anew
The music unfolds
To a song prelude
My life is a song
With its ups and downs 
Written long ago
To my Fathers tune
Beautiful it is
Composed with care
A melody of worship 
That lingers in the air
