The title comes from Psalm 96:
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
12 let the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy
13 before the Lord, for he comes,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
and the peoples in his faithfulness.
(Oh, and yes, heaven forbid a song should incorporate religion or faith. How tasteless. I'd much prefer to hear about failed relationships.)
You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.
You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.

My problem with Christian music is not that its Christian, there are plenty of very positive messages in the bible, but that most of it is just not good music. The goal of the artists is not to make good music, but to preach, and because of this the quality of the music is lowered substantially.
