2. Sing forth the honor of his name. The
noise is to be modulated with tune and time, and fashioned into singing, for we
adore the God of order and harmony. The honor of God should be our subject, and
to honor him our object when we sing. It is our glory to be able to give God
glory. Make his praise glorious. Let it arise with grandeur and
solemnity before him. The pomp of the ancient festivals is not to be imitated
by us, under this dispensation of the Spirit, but we are to throw so much of
heart and holy reverence into all our worship that it will be the best we can
render. Heart worship and spiritual joy render praise more glorious than
vestments, incense, and music could do.
