One of the most encouraging songs I sang is “The Strength of the Lord”.
Sometimes life seems like words and music that can’t quite become a song
So we cry and sigh, then we try again and wonder what could be wrong
But when we turn to the Lord at the end of ourselves
Like we’ve done a time or two before
We find His truth is the same as it has always been
We all never will need more
It’s not in trying but in trusting, not in running but in resting
Not in wond’ring but in praying that we find the strength of the Lord.

Not in wond’ring but in praying that we find the strength of the Lord.
Just like exercising, singing releases all my stress ― it makes me feel happy and relaxed, it gives me a sense of well-being. When God rescued me from the penalty of sin, He placed a new song in my heart. When I sing, there’s this solace uplifting my spirit. Music intensifies my faith, all anxieties disappear and my confidence regained.

on all our pains and struggles in life there is only one whom we can depend on and lift all our burdens too.It is only the Lord who knows the answers to all our questions and in my life's journey of happiness and pains I saw God being my friend,comfort,healer and always a loving Father :)
Songs and singing are gifts from God. Angels rejoice and sing for a single soul who chooses to be the Lord's servant as he lives. So, as long as we live on this chaotic world, we must be vigilant in standing on His side all the time... Sing for His greatness, use what He has given us like talents... and be guided by His wondeful words and spirit.
@Sie: Just hold on, God will take care of you always.
@Jec: We didn't choose to be with our Savior. Instead it's Him who chose us to be with God. :)
