Sing for Gods

Glory
Colossians 3:16

Let the word of Christ dwell in you


richly in all wisdom, teaching and
admonishing one another in psalms
and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing with grace in your hearts to
the Lord
Psalm 95: 1, 2

Oh come, let us sing to the Lord!


Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of
our salvation.
Let us come before His presence with
thanksgiving;
Let us shout joyfully to Him with
psalms.
Isaiah 12: 5

Sing to the Lord,


For He has done excellent
things;
This is known in all the earth
1 Corinthians 14:15

What is the conclusion then? I will


pray with the spirit, and I will also
pray with the understanding. I will
sing with the spirit, and I will
also sing with the
understanding
A Power to Win Souls

There is great pathos and music


in the human voice, and if the
learner will make determined
efforts, he will acquire habits of
talking and singing that will be to
him a power to win souls to
Christ. Manuscrispt 22, 1886.
Music a Power for Good

Music can be made a great power for


good; yet we do not make the most
of this branch of worshipMusic
should have beauty, pathos , and
power.
Let the voices be lifted in songs of
praise and devotion. Call to your aid,
if practicable, instrumental music,
and let the glorious harmony
ascend to God, and acceptable
offering. Testimonies for the Church
4:71
Pathosis an appeal to
emotion, and is a way of
convincing an audience of an
argument by creating an
emotional response.
Attractiveness of the Human
Voice
The human voice that sings the
music of God from a heart filled
with gratitude and thanksgiving is
far more pleasing to Him than
the melody of all the musical
instruments ever invented by
human hands. {Ev. 506.4

Improper Use of the Voice
Speaking from the throat,
letting the words come out from
the upper extremity of the vocal
organs, all the time fretting and
irritating them, is not the best
way to preserve health or to
increase the efficiency of these
organs. --Testimonies for the
Church 2:616

sing
Do not sing by phrases.

Wrong Intonation and
Pronunciation
Itis not loud singing that is
needed, but CLEAR INTONATION,
CORRECT PRONUNCIATION, and
distinct utterance.
Let all take time to cultivate
the voice so that Gods praise
can be sung in clear, soft
tones, not with harshness
and shrillness that offend the
ear.
The ability to sing is the gift
of God; let it be used to His
glory. Testimonies for the
Church 9:143, 144

Heavenly Choir

We should endeavor in our


songs of praise to approach
as nearly as possible to the
harmony of the heavenly
choirs. {Ev 507.5}
Those who make singing a part of
divine worship should select hymns
with music appropriate to the occasion,
not funeral notes, but cheerful, yet
solemn melodies. The voice can
and should be modulated, softened,
and subdued. The Sings of the Times,
June 22, 1882
