Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
(Berthold Auerbach, 19th century Jewish-German poet)
Music is certainly one of God’s great gifts to man. While there is a great variety of types and styles of music, almost everyone appreciates some kind of the art. It can create a wide range of responses from melancholy to joy. The Bible instructs us to use music to praise God and to encourage our fellow men.
Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord. (Ephesians 5:19)
