New Lutheran Quote of the Day

As we take in the song of the Church, it becomes a devotional song in us, a song of the heart. The Holy Spirit uses that song to make music in our hearts to the Lord and to produce a sense of ongoing joy and grateful thanksgiving to God the Father in the name of Jesus. The public song of praise turns us into secret praise singers who carry over that song into our daily lives. -- John Kleinig, *Grace Upon Grace* p. 68
