That's more like it. Real, Holy Ghost music.

Re: I Still Love Good Choirs
I actually don't mind it in church. It is certainly better than the light guitar strumming Hillsong type stuff which seems to be played most of the time.

Re: I Still Love Good Choirs
It is moments like this that I forget why I ever stopped attending the UPCI church I used to attend-- moments like this where I not only remember, but I remember and worship the GOD and Savior of my salvation.
Renda, thank you for posting this beautiful song.
Jesus, thank you for letting me hear this joy and gladness.

I totally agree. Some (okay, a LOT) of modern worship music bores me to tears. Hillsong is at the top of my BORING list. There are a few songs that I like, so I'm not discounting all the good stuff, but after awhile it all sounds the same.

Re: I Still Love Good Choirs
I really feel that I am old now that I can complain about music. Of every single church I have been in the last ten years I can honestly say their praise and worship music is 80% tolerable at best and 20% good or great.
It seems every person who fancies themselves a songwriter the last decade believes they have to cram as many words as possible into a song and avoid a melody at all cost.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

My favorite church music would have to be big band. And no, I've never seen a church that played swing, but I can just imagine what it would be like! I can envision someone doing back flips down the isle, John Belushi style, while the band is belting out Sing Sing Sing.
