Thank you to everyone who joined in singing the songs of Christmas, and sharing the joy of Christ Jesus this weekend! And thanks to the White Care Center and others around White who shared with us in the joy of singing praises to our Savior.

“I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.” (Psalm 104:33)

And here are a few quotes from Luther on the power of music:

Music and theology alone are capable of giving peace and happiness to troubled souls. This plainly proves that the devil, the source of all unhappiness and worries, flees music as much as he does theology.

Music is a discipline, and a mistress of order and good manners, she makes the people milder and gentler, more moral and more reasonable.

My heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary.

Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world.

Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.
