2 WORSHIPPING GOD IN SONG
"Four-part harmony" is not essential for worshipping God in song All acceptable worship in whatever form must meet two conditions: it must be in spirit and in truth. Jhn 4:24 (with the right disposition and according to Truth)

3 WORSHIPPING GOD IN SONG
REASONS FOR SINGING God authorized singing as an act of worship Eph 5:19; Col 3:16; Matt 26:30; Mk 14:26; Acts 16:25 We sing to praise God - human's praise of God is one of scriptures major themes Heb 2:12; 13:15; 1Pet 4:11 Praise by Sacrifice Heb 13:15; Col 3:16 "grace in your hearts" = expressing appreciation, that is, praising God We sing to edify one another Col 3:16 The words of the songs are designed not only to praise God, but to teach and admonish one another

4 WORSHIPPING GOD IN SONG
HOW WE SING Do not have to know music and sing in perfect four part harmony. Sing with "melody in our hearts" Eph 5:19; Col 3:16 "Melody" from Greek "Psallo" means to twitch, twang, play a stringed instrument with the fingers, in Sept., to sing with a harp, sing psalms, denotes in the N. T., to sing a hymn, sing praise; (Vines) Must sing with spirit and understanding 1Cor 14:15 "Understanding" suggest we know meaning of words we sing, but one not knowing exact meaning of a word in a song, does not necessarily mean it would be wrong to sing that song, if they understood general meaning behind the words of song.
