This word is "Allah," although its forms are legion. It tells the heart what cannot be said or described; it tells one about form, thought, and ideal; it draws the very life-blood of the heart. Behind the cry of the muezzin is an eternal cry of God for the soul, and the soul for God. This is the lost word, the lost music, the lost chord. It is lost and yet not lost, for it ever resounds in our midst.
