Do Any of You Still Sing Out Of The Songbook
 
I know many churches have stop singing the od songs altogether. We still sing out of the book and sing new choruses too.

We have a copy of the "Sing Unto The Lord" that we use to sing out of at our fellowship meetings, and we also sing choruses and newer songs too.

But it seems to be the new way of doing things, to throw out the old in favor of the new. I think it is better to mix the combination of the two.

Does everybody actually sing out of the book, or sing the words from a screen?

Yes we still sing one or two out of the book every service.

We also sing some new stuff, some not so new stuff and some of the old choruses and some of the really old choruses.

What scripture says we need to stick to the old paths by singing out of songbooks? It sounds as though you're preaching against projectors as though it is against what God wants.

We put the words on a screen but do alit of old hymns in modern versions.

Rock of Ages
All Hail the Power of Jesus Name
Softly & Tenderly
'Tis So Sweet To Trust in Jesus
Crown Him with many Crowns

And many more. There is tremendous theology in the hymns.
