Deepertruth: The Lord loves Stringed Instrumental Music

The Lord loves Stringed Instrumental Music

With myrrh, aloes, and cassia  your robes are fragrant.

From ivory-paneled palaces*  stringed instruments bring you joy.

Praise the LORD!
Praise God in his sanctuary;
      praise him in his mighty heavens!
Praise him for his mighty deeds;
      praise him according to his excellent greatness!
Praise him with trumpet sound;
      praise him with lute and harp!
Praise him with tambourine and dance;
      praise him with strings and pipe!
Praise him with sounding cymbals;
      praise him with loud clashing cymbals!
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD!
Praise the LORD! 

et the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

And David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the LORD, with songs and lyres and harps and tambourines and castanets and cymbals.

David also commanded the chiefs of the Levites to appoint their brothers as the singers who should play loudly on musical instruments, on harps and lyres and cymbals, to raise sounds of joy.

And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart

What am I to do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will pray with my mind also; I will sing praise with my spirit, but I will sing with my mind also.
