10 Good Reasons to Sing – Today!!

Nearly everyone loves music of one kind or another. And music is good for you! Every follower of Jesus needs some music in their lives. This is a short post but click on the links to listen to some inspiring music!

Here are ten reasons to sing and to love it!

Psalms are songs – many of the Psalms were originally written to music. Some of them have been set to contemporary tunes!

There are many songs in the Bible. Outside of Psalms you will find other rhymes, poems and songs. There is something powerful about these songs as well.

Scripture has been sung for thousands of years! Why stop now. Let a song come out of you, even if you can’t carry a tune in a tin bucket!

Songs are heart language. Many songs defy explanation or deep commentary. They are to be sung. We enjoy music in a different way than we do prose. It doesn’t always have to make sense to our head but it always makes sense to our hearts.

Songs are emotion and that’s okay. God created emotions. Music allows us to express those emotions in a healthy way.

Songs are praise. So many songs we sing contain powerful and high praise of God. It is often far more comfortable and natural to praise God in song than in speech!

Songs open us up to the manifest presence of God. I love the song ‘Holy Spirit.’ Listen to these powerful words!

Songs lift us up. Singing can change the way we feel. Sing a song when you are down and you may soon find peace and rest

Songs raise our faith. The right song at the right time can change the way we feel about things!

Songs change our circumstances. Well maybe at least our perception of our circumstances. We need that music to flow through us.
