Worst Song In the History of Christianity

[tv1a]

The chourus has nothing to do with the verses.
The writer mangles the lyrics just to get them to rhyme.
Reading the lyrics are worse than singing them.
It's a cheesy song.
It's #1 on Jack Kevorkian's playlist.

Oh, I want to see Him, look upon His face,
There to sing forever of His saving grace;
On the streets of glory let me lift my voice,
Cares all past, home at last, ever to rejoice.

When in service for my Lord dark may be the night,
But As I journey through the land, singing as I go,
Pointing souls to Calvary—to the crimson flow,
Many arrows pierce my soul from without, within;
But my Lord leads me on, through Him I must win.

Refrain:
Oh, I want to see Him, look upon His face,
There to sing forever of His saving grace;
On the streets of glory let me lift my voice,
Cares all past, home at last, ever to rejoice.


When in service for my Lord dark may be the night,
But I’ll cling more close to Him, He will give me light;
Satan’s snares may vex my soul, turn my thoughts aside;
But my Lord goes ahead, leads whate’er betide.
When in valleys low I look toward the mountain height,
And behold my Savior there, leading in the fight,
With a tender hand outstretched toward the valley low,
Guiding me, I can see, as I onward go.
When before me billows rise from the mighty deep,
Then my Lord directs my bark; He doth safely keep,
And He leads me gently on through this world below;
He’s a real Friend to me, oh, I love Him so.

I don't see this as a depressing song in the least. What is depressing about acknowledging that life brings us trouble sometimes, but God is a friend and brings us comfort in those times? What is depressing about loving a friend and wanting to see that friend very badly?

Boy, I'm not catchin' your drift on this one. Granted, there are MANY depressing hymns, but "Oh I want To See Him" isn't one of them. Not to me, anyway.

I've watched about 3 minutes of the video and saw only 2 people smiling. The others are frowning or apathetic. Yup they are pentecostals.

These songs are all about pumping up the crowd.

Great for emotionalism when you have nothing else to offer, and mindless lemmings to follow along.

Everyboday say, "Hey" say "Ho" now Scream!!!

Most depressing song in the world.

A close second is the One-God-Tongue-Talking-Apostolic song. A person has to be able to speak in tongues in order to sing that song.

Well I never testified at school. People would say that I'm not coo-hool. But one day I had enough of that evolution stuff and I stood up and I said, "God's Word is true."

Well the teacher did not know what to do. It seems like he was shakin' in his shoo-hoos. Though I knew he meant no harm, he took me by the arm, and he said, "Son, what religion are you?"


I actually had to sing that as a solo one time. I still have nightmares.

Oh c'mon you can do better than that (Indicating your noise level was too low) C'mon He is worthy of your praise, you yell louder at the (insert local sports team) Doesn't Jesus deserve your best (best = loudest noise possible).

The next time someone says, "I can't hear you", I'm gonna go grab the microphone and say, "Yes you can, you liar, and all liars shall have their place in the lake of fire which burneth with brimstone."


I'll tell you what, Baron, nobody was praisin' the Lord, nobody but me!!! I just love myself.

You know what they say about babies when they smile? Maybe the two people in the crowd had just farted. Can I say that here?

I'll check and see if my infraction light goes on!
