DESCRIPTION:Come and Sing the Psalms — Longridge Town Centre\nSaturday 22
 nd August 2026\, 2pm | Outside Longridge Town Council Office\nFor an hour 
 we'll be doing something the people of God have done for thousands of year
 s: lifting our voices together to praise God in the open air. Why sing the
  psalms in public?\nBecause Scripture commands it. We are told to address 
 one another "in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs\, singing and making 
 melody" to the Lord (Ephesians 5:19\; Colossians 3:16). The psalter is God
 's own hymnbook\, given to His people to put praise in our mouths.\nAnd be
 cause praise was never meant to be hidden. The psalms repeatedly call us o
 utward: "Sing to the LORD... declare his glory among the nations" (Psalm 9
 6:1–3)\; "Make a joyful noise unto the LORD\, all ye lands" (Psalm 100:1
 )\; "I will give thanks to you\, O LORD\, among the peoples" (Psalm 57:9).
  To sing God's praise in the public square is simply to obey that call —
  to declare in public that the Lord reigns (Psalm 96:10).\nWhen Paul and S
 ilas sang hymns in prison\, the other prisoners were listening (Acts 16:25
 ). We don't sing to perform\, but we're glad to be overheard.
