Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.  Colossians 3:16 (ESV)

Paul was telling the believers at Colosse how important it was to have God’s word as their foundation. It is still our guidebook and source of wisdom today, as we contemplate another week ahead. We can read it and hide it in our hearts. Many Christian songs can also enable us to lift our hearts in thanksgiving and praise to God. 

“All people that on earth do dwell,

sing to the LORD with cheerful voice.

Serve Him with joy, his praises tell,

come now before him and rejoice!”

 

‘All people that on earth do dwell’ by William Kethe
