The old testament is replete with examples of worship music that invited the presence of God, and his presence comes, ften in power and glory. I'm always reminded of that whenever Frodo hears elvish singing and his heart opens to it, and he is pierced by it.

In the New Testament, it was during Paul and Silas's imprisonment that they worshipped and sang, and the doors of the jail sprung open. Reminds me of Sam and Frodo in Cirith Ungol; the song was what began Frodo's freedom.
