Meet the Mormons. Meet the singer. Listen to the song.

Everyone plays a piece, and there are melodies in each one of us; Life-- it’s glorious. (OST: Meet the Mormons)

This song summarizes the devotion and experience of our brothers and sisters who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. At last, a song that’s so much pleasing to the ears, so calm, inspiring and relaxing. Indeed, no matter what distinction or reclassification of belief we have,  faith believes in unity and importance of individuality for a common goal. This makes life glorious indeed. We just have to discover what part are we going to share in this journey we call life.   

I was about to sleep and I saw this song on my youtube recommendations pane. Yes, I am a David Archuleta fan, and this song is a lullaby for the soul. Its very short yet it is soothing to the ears and has a touching message. This is for the Meet the Mormons documentary which tackles life and experiences of our brothers who are we commonly term as mormons. 

Meet the Mormons is a feature-length documentary that examines the very diverse lives of six devout members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Filmed on location and across the globe, Meet the Mormons takes viewers on a journey into the day-to-day realities of individuals living in the U.S., Costa Rica, Nepal and beyond. From their individual passions to their daily struggles, each story paints a picture as rich and unique as the next while challenging the stereotypes that surround the Mormon faith. The film will appear in theaters across the United States beginning on October 10th, 2014. All net proceeds from the film will go to charity.

Meanwhile, the lyrics is very moving:

There are times when
You might feel aimless
And can't see the places
Where you belong
But you will find that
There is a purpose
It's been there within you
All along
And when you're near it
You can almost hear it

Its like a symphony
Just keep listening
And pretty soon you'll start
To figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece
And there are melodies
In each one of us
Oohhh its glorious

And you will know how
To let it ring out
As you discover
Who you are
Others around you
Will start to wake up
To the sounds that are
In their hearts
It's so amazing
What we're all creating

And as you feel
The notes build
Higher
You will see
