    How to Approach Singing in Worship

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 20, 2021 9:33


    Music is a wonderfully created gift from God. He formed our ears and our ability to hear sound. He allowed our minds to have conscious thoughts, and gave us the ability to communicate with our voices. When we're speaking with each other, we know that our conversations mean something. When we sing with one another, we communicate an agreed upon truth in the beauty of His music notes. We're able to notice something special is happening in music. Glory to God!

In this article, I will give my own stance, in which I intend to appeal to Scripture. If we base this on feelings or opinions we will end up with a meaningless answer.

    1 Your way, not mine, O Lord, however dark it be; lead me by Your own hand, choose out the path for me. 2 Smooth let it be or rough, it will be still the best; winding or straight, it leads right onward to Your rest. 3 I dare not choose my lot; I would not if I might: Oh, choose for me, my God, so I will walk aright. 4 The kingdom that I seek is Yours, so let the way that leads to it be Yours, or I must surely stray. 5 Lord, take my cup, and it with joy or sorrow fill, as best to You may seem; Lord, choose my good and ill. 6 Lord, choose for me my friends, my sickness or my health; and choose my cares for me, my poverty or wealth. 7 Not mine, not mine, the choice in things or great or small; Lord, be my guide, my strength, my wisdom, and my all.
