     | 10,321 views

    The book of Revelation has a host of happy hymns of harmony as part of the heavenly scene. Poems of praise are part of paradise. Joyful songs of jubilation to Jesus are a major part of this revelation about heaven.

    THE MUSIC OF HEAVEN based on Rev.15:1-8 By Glenn Pease Most of us are not gifted in the realm of music. Many of us feel pathetic in our ability to sing, and even more so with our ability to produce music. We can easily envy those to whom it comes easy.
