A little girl, who lived with her mother in a country home, was in the habit of singing to herself all the time her brother was away at school. She had no companions or playmates during the day, and I wondered how she could spend day after day singing as she did. I asked her one day, what made her sing.
“’Cause I’m happy,” was the simple reply.
This is exactly why the Christian sings. God has saved him, and he is happy.
Are you happy, my dear young friend, because Jesus has saved you? Can you sing with truth,
“Happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away?”
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood, out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.” Revelation 5:99And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; (Revelation 5:9).
