If ever there were a Psalm calling us to sing praise to God, this one would be my first choice to recommend ...

 

Sing praises to God, sing praises;
sing praises to our King, sing praises.

Worship Directions - Singing Inward!

“Praise the LORD, O my soul." Psalm 104:1

“All my inmost being – praise his holy name!” Psalm 103:2

"March on, my soul; be strong!" Judges 5:21

 

 

Did you ever hear a song leader encourage the church before a specific song “The lyrics of this song are a prayer – It’s a great song for us to speak directly to God!”? O Lord prepare me, to be a sanctuary..”

 

Or maybe – “Look someone in the eye as we sing with this song! Let’s encourage one another”? Rise up O Men of God!”

 

These are examples of worship lyrics that are primarily “Vertical” or “Horizontal” in nature. With one the communication is directed to God. In the latter, it is directed towards one another.

To God's Ears, Humility Sings

As you come to him, the living Stone - rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him - you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ." I Peter 2:4-5
