What is Tabitha's Lyre?

The lyre that Jesus's friend, Mary, gives Tabitha symbolizes new life. After years of suffering, Tabitha finds a new home with Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. Knowing Tabitha's former love for song and dance, Mary gifts her the instrument, and inspires Tabitha's return to her old self. The lyre helps her reconnect with her former passion, and find her voice once again.
