His saints are now His instrument of song, answering to the touch of His hand, and vibrating with those resurrection joys which in “the midst of the church” He leads forth to His God and Father.
True, indeed, His temple is not yet built, nor has His kingdom in its glory yet dawned, but He has sent forth the Spirit to dwell in His church, that we may speak one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs.
O, that our hearts may be to Him what the stringed instrument was to David’s hand of old.
