It is the principal part in harmonized music. A melody ("singing, chanting"), also voice, or line, is a linear succession of musical tones that the listener perceives as a single entity.

THE MYSTERY OF SOUND (TMS) TMS JUNE 29 TH 2017 SEMINAR MATERIAL THEME: A NEW SONG INSTRUCTOR: TESTIMONY OLIVES TOPIC: THE EFFECT OF NEW SONGS AND OLD SONGS First of all we will have an understanding of what a new song and an old song is. These two phrases are combination of two separate words “New” and “Song”. In defining song, we can simply say it’s making melodies and rhythms with words. It is a composition of lyrics and music that is purposeful. The word “New” simply means fresh, pure, something that has not been in existence. Old will therefore be the opposite of New. Combining them together, new song would mean a fresh composition of lyrics and music. Note that this may be a literal meaning whereas a new song goes deeper than that. It goes beyond the newness of lyrical composure, in this context new song means more of a song producing a fresh meaning/revelation/understanding of the lyrics to a singer and so we can say an old song can become a new song t

THE MYSTERY OF SOUND (TMS) June 2017 A NEW SONG (PSALM 98:1) Elmond Isaiah Psalm 98:1 O sing unto the LORD a new song; for He hath done marvelous things: His right hand and His Holy arm, hath gotten Him the victory. Psalm 96:1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. God is not a stagnant God and does not necessarily celebrate one thing longer than needed. God is a moving God and find pleasure in doing new things all the time. He is God who is unchangeable but changes things. He require that we be creative enough to develop and bring to Him new stuffs each time we approach him either in praise and worship, prayers e.t.c. He expect that because in us is the very creative ability just like it is in Him. It is given to us right from when we were born again.
