I am thankful that God commanded us to sing. For me, singing is a great way to express praise and thankfulness to God. Words cannot describe how awesome He is, but having words and notes on a page to follow, helps me get in the mind set of worshiping Him. Not only that, but the songs are also uplifting to each other. I am always encouraged by the words in the songs, and by how beautiful they sound. Lastly, I am thankful for how they teach us. There are tons of scriptures that I know because of songs we sing. There are ideas and phrases found in hymns for almost everything. If you are ever doubting, hurting, or upset, there is almost always an encouraging song for the occasion.

Thanks for reading!
