Hildegard Von Bingen
One of the many songs written by Hildegard Von Bingen, sang by Susan Lincoln of the Hilde Girls

translation,
Mother, you are the quality
of blooming and greening.
You radiate nobility, just as the dawn
illuminates and announces the day.
Now we celebrate in great joy.
Your compassionate, strong love,
liberates us from our fear.
Now and for all time.


"There is the Music of Heaven in all things and we have forgotten how to hear it until we sing."
Hildegard Von Bingen
 

And she had fabulous flower gardens to make God's nose happy.

"The earth which sustains humanity must not be injured, it must not be destroyed." 
Hildegard Von Bingen
