There's a Song in My Heart

Spirit-filled Christians have a song in their heart. Paul and Silas were able to sing praises to God in the Philippian jail, resulting in the conversion of the jailer and his family. What a happy time they had.
Ephesians 5:18,19 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
God gave us gospel music to minister joy, hope, and faith to our hearts. I play it on my IPod in the car everywhere I go. Sometimes a song grabs me, and I play it again and again, anxious to introduce it to the Children's Choir. "Meat-filled" gospel songs will lead them, strengthen them, and bless them on the path of life.
One day around the throne of glory we will  join thousands upon thousands of angels and saints, praising the Lamb of God in song. But the angels will fold their wings and listen as we sing our redemption hymn. They have never experienced salvation. I wonder if it will be Amazing Grace. I can only imagine the delight and harmony.
