E.Y. Harburg said, “Words make you think. Music makes you feel. A song makes you feel a thought.” I love singing in worship! It never fails to uplift me. The a capella singing is simply beautiful, and the opportunity to praise God makes me feel closer to Him. Aren’t you thankful God has given us the gift of song?

This month’s Bible-marking topic will focus on songs we sing that come straight from the Scriptures. Some are old and some are new, so you may not be familiar with all of them. I never realized there were so many of them! If you find more songs from Scripture that aren’t included here, please share them with us in the comments section so we can all add them.

For the sake of space, I won’t be able to write out each of the verses, but I will include what to underline. In my Bible, I drew little musical notes in the margin next to each one. You can also include the title of the song, if you like. In the front of your Bible, write:
