Praising God through music is an integral component of worshipping Him.
When King David was young, he understood the power of praising God
and used it to appease King Saul whenever evil spirits disturbed him.
Recognizing the importance of musical worship,
King David later instructed the leaders of the Levites
“to appoint their brethren to be the singers accompanied by instruments of music,
stringed instruments, harps, and cymbals, by raising the voice with resounding joy”
for the house of God
(1 Chr 15:16).
