SING < iXI.V WHAT Wl. 1:1.1. II VI. 787 mony with the truths of the gospel, and can be given from the heart of the singer. In other words, our songs should be in very deed "prayers unto the Lord." If we are careful to sing only such songs, then we are sure of the blessings which are promised by the Lord, because his promises are "true and faithful and will all be fulfiled." In conclusion, I say God bless our individual singers, and the members of our musical organizations. I know of no more selfsacrificing and loyal people than those who constitute our choirs, and who are constantly singing at funerals and in our meetings for the benefit of the Saints. Their talents are given freely, and almost without exception without financial reward. I for one appreciate, beyond my ability to tell, the self-sacrificing and loyal devotion of our singers. I wish them God-speed, and there is no blessing too good for these faithful workers. From the bottom of my heart, I pray that the choicest blessings of the Lord may ever attend them, and that they may constantly grow and improve in their art, and that they may also advance in a knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
