How long to sing this song? – Morning Prayer for August 1, 2024

This old U2 song based on Psalm 40 is so fun to sing and play. If you’ve never heard them end their concerts with it — to this day — you’re missing out. Head to YouTube now. They slowly fade out and thousands upon thousands of people continue to sing, “How long to sing this song?” and “I will sing, sing a new song.” Believers, unbelievers, every part of the world. It feels in those moments like a taste of heaven. A taste of the kingdom.
