The god of CCM is the Antichrist

[damombomb]

I can't understand why anyone would constantly be looking for faults in others and focusing on this stuff in the first place.
Isaiah 58 says to put away speaking vanity and pointing our finger.

 

[crossnote]

i'm not that fond of Wagner, either.

so i skip his music (mostly ).

I'll throw in Copeland...yuk.

 

[atwhatcost]

all us old fogeys gave you likes for this one.

This old fogey didn't. Keith was about the time I gave up on Christian music. (No telling where my taste comes from. lol)

 

[psychomom]

I'll throw in Copeland...yuk.

Aaron? how can you dislike a composer one of whose 'significant' pieces is based on Nosferatu?

i did try to like Appalachian Spring...with minimal success. (after purchase regret)

 

[Willie-T]

Stay out of 7/11's so much. (I need a rim shot sound effect. lol)

Yeah, I think that is where Christian group need to take that kind of music. To me, music was never meant to be done, 7/11.

 

[psychomom]

no, you just made this your 2nd good point

There's still time to place your 'like' for Keith unless you can't get outta bed.

So lets' love bomb the OP with lots of awesome CCM! Pretty hard to argue with this one!

"Indescribable"

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God​

HMMM Once again where is the OP?

Why am I not surprised?

 

[psychomom]

HMMM Once again where is the OP?

Why am I not surprised?

i scared him off being right twice in one day.

 

[SarahM777]

Honestly? That's actually what I don't like about Christian music. It tends to focus on our power, our abilities, our lives, our triumphs. I prefer the old songs that speak of God alone. I don't mean that song is sinful or anything, I'm just missing God in song.

You are right some does,but NOT ALL.

Some do write songs like this

The Truth,The Life - John Elefante

Holy is the Father who chose to send His Son
Perfect is the Savior, the sacrificial One
Sacred was the cleansing blood that poured out of His hands
And righteous is Your power that can change the heart of man

Here I will kneel before You
I vow to fall down and adore You
I've got to feel the touch of Your hand
I know I've got to feel the touch of Your hand
(chorus)
Worshipful, mighty, reverent, holy is Your name
From the beginning to forever You'll always be the same
You are the only way, You are the truth, You are the life
You are the only way, You are the truth, You are the life
Holy, the Redeemer, a tortured innocent man
Perfect was His broken body that died and rose again
And sacred are these words He gave us, written by His hand
And righteous is His kingdom where we will live with Him

Here I will kneel before You
I vow to forever adore You
I've got to feel the touch of Your hand
I know I've got to feel the touch of Your hand
Worshipful, mighty, reverent, holy is Your name
From the beginning to forever You'll always be the same
You will never leave or forsake us
There is no one that can separate us
Just as long as we confess these words
There will be no end
God, will You forgive me?
God, make this blind man see
God, in You I believe
God, through Your Son redeem me
Here I will kneel before You
I vow to fall down and adore You
I've got to feel the touch of Your hand
I know I've got to feel the touch of Your hand
(chorus)

There's still time to place your 'like' for Keith unless you can't get outta bed.

Lol...forgive me God...and also brother cross note! But I giggled when I read 'Keith'...and 'Can't get out of bed"...Why did I think Keith Richards from the Rolling Stones? Is he still busting guitars and chasing young women, at the age of 185? Lol

 

[Angela53510]

Then there is this one, by Selah: No wait, this is a hymn disguised as CCM! Whatever!

[video=youtube_share;p_e_4snG6m4]http://youtu.be/p_e_4snG6m4[/video]

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free
Rolling as a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me

Underneath me, all around me
Is the current of Thy love
Leading onward, leading homeward
To Thy glorious rest above

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Deeper than the deepest sea
The love that led my Christ to die
Is the love that set me free

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Spread His praise from shore to shore
How He's loving, ever loving
Changing never, nevermore

How He watches over His loved ones
Died to call them all His own
How for them He's interceding
Watching over them from the throne

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Deeper than the deepest sea
The love that led my Christ to die
Is the love that set me free

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Love of every, love the best
It's an ocean vast of blessing
It's a haven sweet of rest

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
It's a heaven of heavens to me
And it lifts me up to glory
For it lifts me up to Thee

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Deeper than the deepest sea
The love that led my Christ to die
Is the love that set me free
That set me free​

He's not QUITE that old. (But he is a lot older then I am)

 

[Sirk]

I have returned..to hither from whence I departed thee. The word I give you in between these lines can only be discerned from the dearly beloved of the brethren. How whilst thou discern my speaking?


ooops...wrong thread again.

 

[Viligant_Warrior]

i'm not that fond of Wagner, either.

Richard? Or Porter?

 

[skylove7]

Have we derailed this thread? For Gomer Pyle derailed Sarge....when he joined Klinger from M.A.S.H. for a protest? Lol...oh please I hope I didn't give a false prophet an idea that Jim Neighbors is the Antichrist! I refuse to believe it! Lol
