Sacred Songs

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or songs:

    Whatever has made, or does make, or may make music, should be held sacred as the golden bridle-bit of the Shah of Persia’s horse, and the golden hammer, with which his hoofs are shod.

    What wondrous love is this
    That caused the Lord of bliss
    To bear the dreadful curse for my soul
