That's one of the most worshipful songs imo. I love it.

Re: Romance Songs to the Lord

I can see how someone can be critical of that song, but I personally like that song too.
I would love to sit at Jesus' Feet literally or figuratively. I long to lay my head on my Heavenly Daddy's Chest! You can go play with toys if you wanna, but I want to be with my Daddy!
Some want to be weirded out by that, but their carnality will not affect my worship of our GOD and Savior.

I absolutely adore Jesus. I am a muscle building, beard sporting, tool collecting, gun shooting, bloody your knuckles on the car you are working on, kind of a guy, just ask my wife. I do not use my manliness as any excuse to distance myself from knowing Jesus as much as He wants me to know Him. Intimately involving myself with my creator is my greatest pursuit in life. Relationships are born and grow deeper as both individuals become vulnerable to one another. Many of these new songs not only invite you to become vulnerable, but pull at you to sing their lyrics aloud. All this vulnerability goes against the very guarded nature of men. I vote: bring on all the "Jesus is my boyfriend" songs of IHOP, Jesus Culture and others! My masculinity can handle it.

Re: Romance Songs to the Lord
Psa 42:1 To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah. As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God.
Psa 42:2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?
Pants
‛ārag̱: A verb meaning to pant for, to long for. It is a passionate, emotional verb. It is used in emblematic poetry to depict a deer's longing for flowing brooks of water ( Psa_42:1 [2]). It is used of languishing beasts of the field panting after God, their Creator ( Joe_1:20).

We aren't talking about throwing away songs that teach doctrine. We are discussing how some of you guys feel about these songs and God

Re: Romance Songs to the Lord
Hmmmm. Seems like I remember God describing His church as His bride.
