Segment 13: Songs of the Heart
Presenter: Walter Harrelson
The Psalms are actual prayers prayed and hymns sung by ancient Israel.
They are not always model prayers; some are prayers for vengeance. The
Psalms have value to the people of God today for confession, praise,
and thanksgiving during worship; to express our fears and frustration; for
comfort and consolation; to express anger at God for not helping us; to
express our sense of God’s nearness; to draw Jews and Christians together
because they share the Psalms. The Psalms are a rich source of Old
Testament theology.
