Imagine you bought a wonderful present for a best friend or parent. Wouldn't you want them to give you a genuine and enthusiastic thank you? Or would you prefer that they let slip a dull and lifeless thank you? Or how about if they just ignored you and pretended that the gift wasn't even from you? What if they never stopped to tell you thank you, or reciprocate your love for them?
God gives us so many things, many of which we take for granted because we're selfish and greedy, and because we have a bad tendency to think the grass is greener everywhere else but in our own yard. It's this kind of thanklessness that we give God, after all he has given us. Is it too much for him to ask that we offer a little bit more thanks and love to him? And that we worship him as our Creator and Provider? Would you simply ignore your parents (unless they are actually bad parents and/or absent) as if they don't deserve any credit for raising your or influencing you?
Eh. God wants us to worship him with a joyful noise. Why wouldn't someone (a Christian, at the very least) want to do that?

Worshiping God is a very wonderful thing and He loves for His people to be happy. Being joyful when we worship Him lets Him know that we are happy being His children. Besides, who would want to worship with a depressing noise?

God has to COMMAND people to be joyful or else they won't be happy on their own. I guess he wants joyful noises to hide the tears of your miserable existence caused by the fact that he never answers your prayers.

God dont want ur worship in a joyfull noice. He just want us to prey. He just want our feeling and our concentration in prey. If we dont want concentration in prey it means we are defeating God, the one that knows what is in our heatrs. So stop preying with music and shaking bodies. u can ask more at praisedpk@yahoo.com

That's called anthropomorphizing.

Would you want someone to serve you joyfully, or begrudgingly?
