Oh God Our Help in Ages Past

I'm pretty fond of  The Blind Boys of Alabama singing "Amazing Grace" to the tune of "House of the Rising Sun" too.

I was raised Mennonite so for me hymns are an integral part of the worship service. Even better if they are acapella.

Praise music?? Meh for me!

How Great Thou Art

Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing

Alas and Did My Savior Bleed?

It is Well

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

As far as contemporary music, I like the "Cornerstone" song better than most, because the theology is expressed so well in the lyrics similar to the old classics.

I have seen it.  I appreciate some of those songs.  Let me be clear that I have nothing against people listening to praise music, I just don't care for a lot of it in a church setting. Some of it has the focus more on man than on God. However, I am NOT saying that it is bad music to listen to. I just personally prefer hymns.

The words to this hymn reflect my life.




















Break my heart, dear Lord,



Tear the barriers down,



Show me with, convicting tears,



The glory of Your crown.
Chorus -



My heart is hard, my soul so weak



The ways of evil cut so deep



I need You, Lord to come inside



And gently break my heart.
My sin is great, but I can see,



The glory set for me.



Show me Father, where to start.



And gently break my heart.
