Ever notice that some are Psalms and some are Songs and some are both? But if a psalm is a song why make the point of calling some psalms both psalms AND songs? Well, a Psalm, mizmowr, is a melody, a song, a poem; but a Song, shiyr, is a song, but particularly, one to be sung in a religious setting, or by the Levitical choirs. So the Songs are most likely some of the songs intended to be sung in the temple, by the choir and/or the people. You know, like Paul writes in Ephesians 5:19 + Colossians 3:16 with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs. It wasnt random. Paul knew there were songs and psalms. He was a teacher, remember? Blessings.
