God’s Word has much to say about music. In the Bible you’ll find songs, lyrics, song writers, voices, and instruments. We are told to sing and address one another with melody and to direct our voices to the Lord in worship. Music in the Bible calls God’s people to live and posture themselves a certain way. Our songs are to be rooted in lives of purity and holiness. We are to abide in Christ and His Word while praising Him in all circumstances.
