- 2. a song of praise or joy
- 3. something resembling a hymn”
The difference between a hymn and a praise song is two-fold: 1) praise songs are less formal in their "lyric structure," while hymns will seem more like a poem set to music. 2) praise songs are horizontal, talking about the personal experience while hymns are typically vertical, talking about God. The original greek for "hymn" means "praise song (to God)"
