The Lord your God will rejoice over you with singing

Went to a cool music conference over the weekend. Amongst all the Bible's songs about our singing to God and each other, here's a little gem from Zephaniah 3: 14-17:


Sing, O Daughter of Zion;
shout aloud, O Israel!
Be glad and rejoice with all your heart,
O Daughter of Jerusalem!

The LORD has taken away your punishment,
he has turned back your enemy.
The LORD, the King of Israel, is with you;
never again will you fear any harm.

On that day they will say to Jerusalem,
"Do not fear, O Zion;
do not let your hands hang limp.

The LORD your God is with you,
he is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing."


God will sing over us! How lovely.

A friend commented, "I bet he has a great voice".
