I am reading Don Piper's book on 90 minutes in Heaven and so far it has made me cry. However one thing he said is the most thing he was aware of was music everywhere in Heaven and he said it was all praise there were no sad songs in Heaven.... that concept penetrated me and has me thinking... wow if their are no sad songs in Heaven then why are there sad songs being written here. Does that mean that those sad songs are not from God? I believe so because He wants us to praise Him in all things and He wants us to live in Kingdom Principles and walk the Heavenly walk instead of the flesh walk. He is JOY and HOPE and FULL of Praise and Glory! So when we go through the trials of life we are to Praise Him.... Sing Songs of Praise to His Holy Name.... I knew this in mind but it’s penetrating my heart even more and after hearing there are no sad songs in Heaven. I thought what on earth am I doing writing sad stuff from time to time.... sure its a release but we are still supposed to offer up sacrifices of Praise! Even in the wilderness!! Oh yes even there ... Wow!
Praise
I just want to give to you
To hear praise
From hearts
On fire
Give Him praise
As you give your
Heart to Him
And be set free
Eternally from sin
Oh, Glorious Praise
Glorious praise
To the King of Kings
We will forever sing.

Sounds like a really good book..
I agree there are no sad songs in heaven.. nevertheless there will be sad songs on earth, even if you read the psalms there are some... it's not so much that they are sad songs but where they take the person after... We will all have moments of sadness and some people write poetry and songs to deal with their sadness, it's our choice whether to ponder and stay there or find a place of rejoicing in Him no matter the circumstance!!!
