How Can I Keep From Singing

I attended a convention of the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League in June under the theme “The Melody of God’s Love.” This organization is all about letting more people know about our Lord Jesus and what He has done so that everyone can have the forgiveness of sins and the certainty of eternal life. They adopted mission grants that they will fund here in Texas and around the nation for the next two years through their “mite box” offerings, giving over and above what they give to their local congregations. They wove the musical theme through this convention, so naturally we joined our hearts and voices singing God’s praises. As I rejoiced with these mission minded women, I was reminded of the refrain from a song by Chris Tomlin and Matt Redman:
How can I keep from singing Your praise?
How can I ever say enough, how amazing is Your love!
How can I keep from shouting Your Name?
I know I am loved by the King, and it makes my heart want to sing!
I hope you all know the melody of God’s love and it makes your heart want to sing as well.
