'Hymns' in the Bible

But about midnight when Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns of praise to God, and the prisoners were listening to them;

Speak to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, [offering praise by] singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;

Let the [spoken] word of Christ have its home within you [dwelling in your heart and mind—permeating every aspect of your being] as you teach [spiritual things] and admonish and train one another with all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

saying,“I will declare Your (the Father’s) name to My brethren (believers),In the midst of the congregation I will sing Your praise.”
