That Which Makes Songs Sing

It has apparently been the most preached book of the Bible throughout church history, and it starts like this:

The Song of Songs, which is Solomon’s.

So the Song which follows is the greatest of all songs. It is greater than the Song of Moses and even the Song of Moses and of the Lamb. Here is proof enough that the Song of Solomon is the Song of God’s gospel love for us.

Perhaps it also means that God’s love is the Song that every true song sings, the Music which inspires all others. Every beautiful melody is a small expression of the beauteous goodness of God. Every good story is a reflection of the true Story. (This is true whether the musician or writer knows it or not.) And thus,

Singers and dancers [and producers and story writers] alike say, “All my springs are in you.”
