Music and the Doctrine and Covenants
It is in this book of scripture that the Lord commissioned Emma Smith to compile the first hymnal for the restored Church of Jesus Christ. See section 25.
The Seminary program of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has music available to help with the teaching of the book of scripture known as the Doctrine and Covenants. It is found in the music section of the Church’s website churchofjesuschrist.org
One of the hymns included in the first hymnal is “The Spirit of God”. Here is an arrangement by Mack Wilberg performed by the Evangel Choir in Ghana.

A New Website
This website is to help support the important role of music in the home and church. During this most unusual time of quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the home has become the central stage for the church as families invoke the Lord’s blessings upon them by teaching the gospel, bearing testimony and participating in the Lord’s sacrament to ask for his spirit to always be with us as we remember Him.
Music has always been important to the Lord and has been written about in all eras of time. After the Lord administered the first sacrament to his disciples, Matthew says, ‘And when they had sung an ahymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.’ Matt 26:30.
This site is to support the singing of good hymns and songs. It is to teach, prepare, and sustain those who are involved in music with their congregations and families . . . which basically means all of us. There are resources for vocal, keyboards, and other instruments. Soon there will be links to the Coal Stake Music YouTube page for you to listen and enjoy our upcoming musical firesides.
Music can inspire and teach. Singing has the potential to be a form of prayer to God. Rhythm, lyrics, melodies, and harmonies all work in conjunction to uplift the soul and bring meaning and joy to life.
It’s easy to follow CoalStakeMusic.com (see ‘follow’ on sidebar) and share. Contact coalstakemusic@gmail.com if you would like to contribute an article.
