My Saviour is a singing sensation
I think the best justification I’ve discovered for singing, writing, recording and worshipping with songs can be summed up below:
“The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. (Zeph 3:17, NKJV)
All the good guys sing: the angels (Luke 2:10), the saved people (Rev 15:2-4) and God – isn’t that something? If we were made in God’s image, then I’m looking forward to the day when our glorification might just include a vocal-cord upgrade. At this point I’m trying to imagine what God’s singing voice would sound like. Basso profundo? Frank Sinatra? Mary J Blige? David Caruso? Or maybe it’s a vocal mesh that’s somewhere between Clay Aiken, Brooke Fraser, John Mayer and the Vienna Boy’s Choir.
Here’s another point: in the Bible, there’s no mention of Satan, or his associated cronies singing. It’s not immediately obvious whether they are tonedeaf or musically broke, but here’s the sobering possibility: sin takes away the desire to sing, and to sing happily.
I think I need to sing more.
