speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints;

For God is King of all the earth; sing praises with understanding.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
