You have sung to me forever.
The song you sing to me, the morning song of chirping birds, began long before I could hear it. Long after I leave, will it go on.
So, too, the evening song of the crickets and frogs. It began before me and will continue.
❖
Do you sing to me many songs, Lord, all at once? Do they greet me separately according to need?
Let me hear you fully today.

Consider:
Can I hear you yet earlier, even before I seek to hear?
