Have you ever wondered why music feels so good, why singing seems to cheer us up? I’m not sure the technical answer, but the Psalmist says, “Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord all the earth” (Psalms 96:1). When you are down with the blues, try putting on some cheerful Christian praise music. Perhaps listen to some of the old hymns and notice the positive impact on your mood.
