God loves psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs—so if there is grace in your heart, then sing TO Him, and ABOUT Him to encourage others.

The obvious difference between a psalm and a hymn is that God Himself inspired the words of the psalms; they are God’s inerrant, infallible Word. Hymns may be “inspired” and inspiring, but they aren’t inspired in the same authoritative way as Scripture. Hymns are written by men and women who sat down with the intention of creating a song to honor God or to teach believers. It’s like the difference between reading the Bible and reading the Westminster Confession of faith. The Westminster Confession is a venerable document – full of God’s great truth, and full of references to the Scriptures – but in itself it is NOT the Bible. I believe the Westminster writers were aided by God; but we cannot hold it up at the same level as Scripture. It may have errors. We must judge it BY the Word of God. And please understand that the Biblical definition of a “hymn” has nothing to do with style or era. In other words, the hymns we find in hymn books, and the more recent choruses and songs that we put up on the overhead screen WOULD ALL fall under the Bible’s definition of “hymns”. They are all the worshipful compositions of man. There may be only one style of “hymn” you love, and maybe it is hymns from the hymnbook. And I understand that as a style preference; if you forced ne to choose only one source to sing from other than the Bible for the rest of my life, I’d choose the hymnbook. But I thank God I don’t have to make that choice. Hymns ancient and very modern – songs written by hearts filled with love for God and for holiness – I love to sing them all.

A simple, spontaneous song of praise that someone sings to the Lord from a full heart moved upon by God’s Spirit. The obvious difference between a hymn and a spiritual song is that the composer of a hymn sits down and works deliberately to structure a song. But the person who is singing in the Spirit is just letting a heart full of worship overflow in melody. I don’t think Martin Luther was humming in the shower and just spontaneously began to sing: “A mighty fortress is our God; a bulwark never failing; our helper He amid the flood; of mortal ills prevailing…” No, he thought about that for a while! In contrast, an unknown singer sat down worshiping years ago and just began to sing the words, “God is so good; God is so good; God is so good; He’s so good to me.” And that spontaneous song was “so good” that it happened to catch on, and the church kept singing it for a long time.
