Christian Praise Worship Songs playlist: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=4D0533BC00E40EA4

Music written and performed ( piano,vocals, lyrics ) by Esther Mui, all for the glory of God. http://www.m-csn.com/esthermui.htm

"In June 2009, I was asked by my pastor to put music to Scripture, word for word, specifically to the 15 Songs of Ascents (Psalms 120 to 134). From the start of the first psalm I worked on (which was Psalm 130) to the completion of the last one (Psalm 133), I have not ceased to be amazed, for the Lord has given me melody after melody to fit His Words. I believe this is because we, the church of Jesus Christ, are entering into a season when these psalms will become more and more relevant, as we look forward to our Lord's return. (Please click here to read more on Songs of Ascents)."

"I thank my pastor, Ps. Lee Shaw Ming, for allowing the Lord to use him to challenge me to the task. (Your feedback and guidance were crucial to keeping me on track.) I thank my church for enthusiastically learning and singing these Scripture songs. (Hearing you sing them week after week gave me the encouragement to continue writing.) I thank my husband, KW Mui, for providing me with all that I needed to work on these Scripture songs (You were the first to have the vision that we would sing straight out of our Bibles!) I thank my kids (Rebekah and Samuel) for their endless support and love. I thank my friends (in particular Pastor Wah Lok, Catherine Wong, and my sister, Grace Soon) for their feedback and encouragement. I thank my co-producer, sound engineer and "manager", stack45ny, for believing in my music, and for the hours spent on working on these songs and videos. (The Lord bless you richly for your labor of love to see many blessed by these songs). Most of all, I thank my God, my Lord and Master, for seeing me fit to be a channel for what He wants to bless the body of Christ with." -Esther Mui


Psalm 131 (NKJV) - A Song of Ascents

1 LORD, my heart is not haughty,
Nor my eyes lofty.
Neither do I concern myself with great matters,
Nor with things too profound for me.

2 Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul,
Like a weaned child with his mother;
Like a weaned child is my soul within me.

3 O Israel, hope in the LORD
From this time forth and forever.


But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. (Isaiah 40:31)

  • I hate the Jews Because they do not like one of the people and they hate everyone And fill their hearts with hatred

  • @anbrsh Jesus said: “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you" (Matthew 5:43-44)

  • I have often returned to this verse in Psalm 131 as a reminder to have childlike trust in the Lord. When the problems of life seem unsolvable, it's a consolation to believe in God's wisdom, love and sovereignty. This is a beautiful song by Esther and the photos are an excellent illustration of the message.

  • Beautiful ... thank you for blessing us with this :) K

  • John 12:40 He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their hearts; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, and be converted, and I should heal them.

    We just be thankful because of their blindness, Jesus turned His love for us Gentiles..
