Daily Affirmations - Day 6 - Gratitude In Your Heart: Making Melody

Day 6: Making Melody

I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing the praises of Your name, O Most High

But be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart (Ephesians 5:19 ESV)

You must learn to feel that "sweeter sounds than music knows mingle in your Saviour's name," or else you can never chaunt the hallelujahs of the blest before the throne of the great "I AM."

Take that thought, whatever else you forget; treasure it up in your memory, and ask grace of God that you may here be taught to sing the heavenly song, that afterwards in the land of the hereafter, in the home of the beautified, you may continually chaunt the high praises of Him that loved you.

~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon ~ Heavenly Worship, December 28, 1856

I have a song that Jesus gave me

It was sent from heav’n above

There never was a sweeter melody

‘Tis a melody of love

Chorus:

In my heart there rings a melody

There rings a melody with heaven’s harmony

In my heart there rings a melody

There rings a melody of love

I love the Christ who died on Calv’ry

For He washed my sins away

He put within my heart a melody

And I know it’s there to stay

‘Twill be my endless theme in glory

With the angels I will sing

‘Twill be a song with glorious harmony

When the courts of heaven ring

~ Elton M. Roth 1891-1951
