I know. I hate it. And with current lingo the way it is...it probably sounds pretty weird to newcomers.

Amen! I have heard preachers use lingo i.e. make love to Jesus. They could use others words that would sound more appropriate.

That grosses me out too!
Sure I love him and I'll show Him all day long, but there's a difference in showing and making love to him. Ugh!

We had a song leader many years ago who loved the old hymn O I Want to See Him. So we sang it every single service - Sunday morning, Sunday night, Wednesday night Bible Study and Friday night youth Service - for over a year solid!!! Seriously!!
For a long, long time, I could not stomach that song. Now (20 years later) when we sing it occasionally (thank the Lord it's ONLY occasionally) I never think about the Lord. My mind immediately drifts off to the person who loved that song so much he made us sing it to death.

We had the funniest thing happen when we were at our old church.. The pastor had just told me he had come to despise the song Amazing Grace because the church he pastored before ours... thats the only song they think the lady who played piano knew.. so then we sang it but very very rarely.. so we hire this girl fresh out of JCM... she comes to our church... (now mind you we had just had this conversation about the song and where this angst for it came from 1 week before she came) her first service.. she plays and sings Amazing Grace during offering! Oh but thats not good enough.. altar call too!! Oh the look on his face... so at Fridays that night we had to break it to her and she was so embarrassed so if that wasnt good enough.. the next service we had a newer lady sing a solo... she gets up and belts out another version of..... Amazing Grace!!! It was the most hysterical thing... he was so funny to. He would just look at me and hubby... finally asked.. did yall have anything to do with this?!?! LOL Nope!

Shortly followed by page 86 - Heaven's Jubilee! (Or page 174, Just A Little Talk With Jesus) ...is that 172?

It is in our songbook. We have "Sing Unto the Lord." (doesn't everyone?)
