Singing of Psalms a Gospel Ordinance 1: The Duty Itself

In this first of a four part treatise, John Cotton deals with the particular duty of signing psalms "with a lively voice" in God's worship. Evidently he was addressing some in his day who appear to have held strange views that audible, vocal singing of praise was not commanded by God under the New Testament. Though such notions are not current today, Cotton's responses are most instructive and lay a solid foundation for his subsequent arguments.
