JOHNATHAN'S SONG The Communion of Saints: His True Destiny To laud the eternal Rhythm of Heaven’s Own Song God’s Wonders made known Through the works of his hands To Magnify God’s Glory: His True Desire The full flame of the Holy Ghost Unkindled the windows of his animus His pupils enflamed by the infinite fire of the Holy Ghost He was selected by the hand of God alongside the Communion of Saints His Soul began to sing God’s people majestically unified And the very heavenly choir of Angels Joined in the song of his soul Alleluia The Heavenly Father received Johnathan’s Song magnified from his very animus As a mother longs for her child God smiled Johnathan’s Person Began to emanate the very light of God A glow about his person bright and radiant He had begun to shine brighter than the purest of diamonds. All in Communion, the hosts of Heaven proclaimed Our Very Brother, God’s own Son Who is this one exuding the light of God? A man as bright and pure as the noonday Sun.
