Now therefore, write this song for yourselves, and teach it to the sons of Israel; put it on their lips, so that this song may be a witness for Me against the sons of Israel. Deuteronomy 31:19
The reign of Moses as the deliverer had been a difficult journey. Here, at the end of his life, God directed him to write a song, a chronicle of their journey over the past forty years. As they would sing this song in the future, it would be a reminder of their need to be faithful. Throughout Biblical history, songs were the best way to teach and encourage. If it was good then, it certainly is good now. Christian songs lift our spirits, open our hearts, and help us remember God in our lives. "Sing on ye joyful pilgrims"
