Dominic Kelly's "My song is love unknown"

Forget about Marty Haugen and AmChurch "hymns" for a moment, and just listen to this. Then ask yourself why we endure what we do.

Justin Taylor, a thoughtful blogger from Wheaton, Illinois, linked to this piece of music in his posting, entitled simply, "beFriended" [sic] (Between Two Worlds, July 16, 2009). There one reads:

Ray Orlund:

I cannot listen to "My Song Is Love Unknown" . . . without being moved to the depths of my being that I have such a Friend. If you have him too, you know what I mean. If you don't have him, you can. Are you willing to be beFriended?

Willingness is all he asks.
