Describe a Psalmist

[HelenaZF]

I think a Psalmist writes poetry that is worded in such a way that when others recite or sing it, it can transport them into a place of worship, adoration, praise or intercession. A psalm is a vehicle meant to get you somewhere, to perform a function---whether it be glorification or introspection. If you can write stanza that accomplish this, then I believe you are a psalmist.



I heard (a psalmist) once say that he had been prophesied over as a psalmist. He said that he started to go around practicing by writing rhymes like "Look, there hunny, see that tree? I'm so glad we've been set free!" But he soon realized there was more to it than that. And that "more" had to do with substance.
