Praying and singing went together for followers of Jesus in the first century. The New Testament includes fine examples of profound prayers and sacred songs. This book opens the pages of the New Testament and looks at nine prayers, seven songs and an eighth set of songs to God and Christ in the power of the Spirit. The examination of these prayers and songs will encourage twenty-first century seekers after truth to pray to the Lord and to sing his praises. Indeed, taking seriously the New Testament prayers and songs will enable readers to be followers of Jesus who practise what they preach.
