Every day is a day of Jubilee, a day for singing a new song of joy to the Lord. It’s a day for singing songs of joy, a day for songs sung by the heart.
As St. Augustine writes in a discourse for the feast of St. Cecilia: “Praise the Lord with the lyre, make melody to him with the harp of ten strings! Sing to him a new song. Rid yourself of what is old and worn out, for you know a new song. A new man, a new covenant – a new song.
This new song does not belong to the old man. Only the new man learns it: the man restored from his fallen condition through the grace of God, and now sharing in the new covenant, that is, the kingdom of heaven. To it all, our love now aspires and sings a new song. Let us sing a new song, not with our lips, but with our lives….
“Now, who is more worthy of such a cry of jubilation than God himself, whom all words fail to describe. If words will not serve, and yet you must not remain silent, what else can you do but cry out for joy? Your heart must rejoice beyond words, soaring into an immensity of gladness, unrestrained by syllabic bonds. Sing to him with songs of joy!”
