Is it okay to listen to music that not Christian but has good words?

Question:
Is it okay to listen to music that may not be Christian, but not have any wrong words in it, such as love songs or classic rock?

Answer:
“As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart” (Proverbs 25:20).

David’s music refreshed Saul, made him “well, and the evil spirit departed from him” (1 Samuel 16:23). Music can be very helpful to soothe and quiet our emotions.
