Spurgeon says this (from Psalm 50):
True
praise glorifieth God. I must confess that I do not particularly like to
hear voices that jar in the singing, but I should not like to stop one
voice, certainly not if it stopped one heart. I think it is said of Mr.
Rowland Hill, that an old lady once sat upon his pulpit-stairs who sang so
very bad a voice that the good gentleman really could not feel that he could
worship while he had her voice in his ear, and he said, “Do be quiet, my
good soul.” She answered, “I sing from my heart, Mr. Hill.” “Sing
away!” said he, “and I beg your pardon. I will not stop you.” And I think
I could beg the pardon of the most cracked voice I ever heard if it is
really accompanied with a real loving, grateful heart. God gets same of his
richest praise amidst dying groans, and he gets delightful music from his
people’s triumphant ones.
