Default Re: Praise/Worship Songs! Turn Up Your Speakers!

STG: Is this something that could be sang by Christians everywhere, or do you think there a "taint" to it?

I like most who frequent these boards have a “once bitten twice shy” attitude toward all things LSM retains copyright on.

I like the song. Two things that caught my eye “He as the Spirit....” and “we all must call on him”.

The first is based on Lee’s processed God teaching where Christ becomes The Spirit which is debatable. The second includes “must” another word oft-used by Lee and smacks of violating our choice and sadly reminds me of mindless chanting sessions in local church meetings.

I would love to make some edits to this song (and others in LSM’s Hymns and hymnal.net) to replace non-scriptural phrases like these with scriptural phrases. But I’d need to get LSM’s permission. Something I haven’t wanted to take on.
