What does the bible say about singing?
At Same Boat Music we LOVE singing, that’s what we’re all about! We know the power of a song to change peoples lives, because we have seen it. We’ve seen people moved to tears and people moved to dancing. We’ve seen a child who had barely spoken in school, sing a solo in front of an entire assembly.
Amazing things happen when people sing, but what does the Bible say about singing?
Sing in the good times!
Psalm 95
1 Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.
