    History of Hymns

    A great book (well, it's two actually) I have stumbled on is THEN SINGS MY SOUL by Robert Morgan. There are two volumes, and each volume accounts 150 hymns, and a brief story on each one. There is also a musical score for every one. So that's 300 hymns, 300 stories and 300 musical scores!

    Cyberhymnal

    I LOAVE this site! I am a songwriter and one thing I love doing is examining the old hymns to pull some old lines and truths into the modern age. I love getting inspiration from the hymns! I find as I get older that the modern songs, while the quantity is exploding, are exploring less and...

    Bad Theology In Hymns

    One I have questioned from time to time is actually a more modern song; Create in Me a clean Heart... we sing it with gusto at church but the line "take not thy holy spirit from me" has puzzled me... can the holy spirit be taken away from one who is a believer? No, if they are living a repentant...

    Be Careful What You Pray For!

    Well said tgg, there are no guarantees about anything when it comes to any government, let alone an openly corrupt one. Furthermore, I think that perhaps Christians, hurt as they justifiably could be over the way Castro has run the joint, should be pleading that God save Castro and/or (or, if...

    Song writing

    Good advice Jenster. Agree totally with that \Also spend time in the word, there may be things that lead you to write from the Bible itself, I know I get tons of my own inspiration from it. God bless!

    New Years Fireworks - Waste of Money?

    Some others have said there are greater wastes by our government, that is 100% true but having said that, just because other things are bigger wastes doesn't mean that the fireworks is less of a waste. They look absolutely amazing but once they are finished, the air is so thick with smoke it...
