Old Time Pentecostal Hymns

[Originalist]

The way that Pentecostal and Baptist song services used to be was a literal art form. Men and women learned that the strange stacking of wording in those hymn books meant certain parts for men and certain parts for women.....and EVERYBODY sang out-loud. We need to return to our heritage......


This is the congregational singing from 2013 at First Assembly of God in Van Buren, Arkansas. They have never adopted the modern..........stuff.

2017 they still worship like that. One of the oldest churches in the AG. I watch some of their archived services on Roku.

The old hymns move me far more than the music I hear in most churches today. I'll take any of these over anything in most churches today:

Be Thou My Vision
Great Is Thy Faithfulness
Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior
It Is Well
There Is a Fountain
Amazing Grace
How Great Thou Art
His Eye is on the Sparrow
Be Still My Soul
What A Friend We Have In Jesus
By And By (We'll Understand It Better By And By)
When I Survey The Wondrous Cross
Part The Waters
I Need Thee Every Hour
Precious Lord, Take My Hand
Just A Closer Walk With Jesus
There Is Power In The Blood
O Sacred Head Now Wounded
Be Thou Near To Me

We've found that hymns work well in house churches. Personally, I think they work well anywhere.
