Speaking to yourselves in . . . hymns.
A hymn is a more fully developed communication toward God. It comes from the word “humnos,” which denotes a song of praise addressed to God. This is perhaps the highest form of singing for the Christian, as the words of many hymns seek to draw the believer into the presence of God. A short but very good example of a hymn is the following: “Lord Jesus, we worship and bow at Thy feet,
And give Thee the glory, the honor that’s meet; While through Thee, O Saviour, our praises ascend, And join in the chorus that never shall end.
