what makes a song fit for a believer?
1. The artist
2. The lyrics...
As 4 me, ill go 4 d lyrics...
Drop ur points fellow nairalanders

SOMETIMES, WE LIKE THE SONG BECAUSE OF THE ARTISTS EVEN IF THE LYRICS IS TRASH.

Both. The lyrics should give glory to GOD as much as the praise is to be offered by a clean hands and pure heart. What say ye? Know not we ought worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness?? Wherewith the sacrifice of a sinner is an abomination before GOD.

We sing to the glory of GOD, not for mere singing and entertaining ourselves

exactly. Sing spiritual songs WITH grace in your hearts.

It's the lyrics or message of course so long as it's from the word of God. . Well for the artist, the vessel matters but his do you know the spiritual state of a man singing Jesus I love you on radio or tv. So it's better to stick with the message. As long as it's from scripture . We are connecting to it's because it's from scripture . Regardless of which donkey sang it . Or which stone was used.

Nice question, @OP. For me as long as it gives glory to God and edifies. Afterall, we use quotes from people who might not even have known God yet the words made some sense.
God can pass his message through even a mad-man.

Atimes it makes one wonder then, can you eat food made by an unbeliever? Do we know who made the internet we use to share and receive information? Spray perfume made by a supposed 'atheist'.

I think it all depends on what you do with what you hear, see or use. You cannot really judge the content but you can be edified by the song.
