Singing Praise To God
By Greta Zwaan
Are you aware of the words that you use
In the songs of praise that you sing?
Do they convey your soul’s inner joy,
A thanksgiving offering you bring?
Do they reveal the depths of your faith,
Do you sing the words from your heart?
Or do you just follow along with the crowd,
Ritualistically doing your part?
“I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go, Dear Lord;”
Can you commit to that thought?
Or “All To Jesus I Surrender”
And think of the battles He fought?
Be faithful in worship, be wary of words,
Don’t promise what you can’t fulfill.
Sing of your love and praise to the Lord,
But sometimes it’s best to keep still.
