Gold Nugget 266 - The Exquisite Power of Music
Music furnishes one of the most exquisite, elevating, unwearying pleasures of which our nature is capable. But it does much more.
Song and music are a language distinct from speech – the language of feeling. This language supplies the means by which multitudes may express their thoughts as well as their feelings as with one voice. Let a thousand people speak at once; all thought and feeling are drowned in hubbub. But let them sing together in perfect time and tune; both thought and feeling are raised to a pitch of energy else inconceivable.
The Pulpit Commentary, Psalms Volume 1 p. 366, Psalms 47:6-7, (E. R. Conder, W. Clarkson)
