    Praise the Lord with Timbrel and Harp, September 21

    At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps. Nehemiah 12:27.RRe 266.1

    Lessons of great profit, even in this age of educational progress, may be found in the history of God’s ancient people.—Fundamentals of Christian Education, 95.RRe 266.2

    The art of sacred melody was diligently cultivated. No frivolous waltz was heard, nor flippant song that should extol man and divert the attention from God; but, sacred, solemn psalms of praise to the Creator, exalting His name and recounting His wondrous works. Thus music was made to serve a holy purpose, to lift the thoughts to that which was pure and noble and elevating, and to awaken in the soul devotion and gratitude to God.—Fundamentals of Christian Education, 97.RRe 266.3

    Music should have beauty, pathos, and power. Let the voices be lifted in songs of praise and devotion. Call to your aid, if practicable, instrumental music, and let the glorious harmony ascend to God, an acceptable offering.—Testimonies for the Church 4:71.RRe 266.4
