When the music fades

One of my all-time favorite songs, "The Heart Of Worship", written by Matt Redman, starts with the line...."When the music fades..". To think about it lightly, that sounds like a contradiction. I mean, this is a worship song, right? And a song is composed of music, right? If it fades....what happens then?.........Most of us would probably look for another song where the music doesn't fade. And the reason we might do that, is because we have this idea that we need the music so that we can worship God. The sad part of this process is, we have it backwards. We don't need the music to worship God, we just need to worship God. Our worship of God will generate a song in our hearts. Therein lies "The Heart Of Worship".
