Quotes on Worship

"Let us remember therefore this lesson: That to worship our God sincerely we must evermore begin by hearkening to His voice, and by giving ear to what He commands us. For if every man goes after his own way, we shall wander. We may well run, but we shall never be a whit nearer to the right way, but rather farther away from it." John Calvin

"Nothing should be done or sung or said in church which does not aim directly or indirectly at glorifying God or edifying the people or both." C.S. Lewis

"Unless men see a beauty and delight in the worship of God, they will not do it willingly." John Owen

"Till you can sing and rejoice and delight in God as misers do in gold, and kings in scepters, you can never enjoy the world." Thomas Traherne

"I may worship in a different building from you, I may worship in a different style, but all we hold dear is God’s gift in Christ Jesus, who is our Unity. In Him we have all and lack nothing." Michael J Davis

"God is not moved or impressed with our worship until our hearts are moved and impressed by Him." Kelly Sparks

"Many a professing Christian is a stumbling-block because his worship is divided. On Sunday he worships God; on week days God has little or no place in his thoughts." D.L. Moody
