I still believe in the original. I still believe in the OTW...the old time way. I'm apostolic to the core. I believe in truth without compromise. Yet, I want to keep a Christ-like spirit in all that I say and do, even if there are sharp words of correction sometimes involved.
I did not hear the "Holy, Holy, Holy" song at camp. If I had, I would not have joined in to sing it. I don't like the spirit involved in that song, regardless of what the words are.
I very often sing songs that are not entirelly correct doctrinally such as "I'll Fly Away," because the sound expresses spiritual affections that speaks from my spiritual mind. I'll sing it with much gusto along with others who have the same spiritial affections in seeing their Lord, face to face. In this case, it is not the words, but the spirit of the sound. Angels understand sounds of affections whether it be Death Metal or the old blood songs the old timers cherished. They are understood in the spirit world for exactly what they express. You can put Amazing grace to Death Metal music. The angels would understand the sound of the music rather than the words of Amazing Grace.
Does anyone really understand what I am talking about...does anyone???

Elder, I DO understand what you are talking about. But let me ask you...the music to
Holy, Holy, Holy is wonderful, and when changing the last two lines, I sing it gladly...must we throw aside every piece of music because of the one who wrote it or the intention of the writer?!
The spirit of the above mentioned song is worship...respectfully, the only Spirit I feel with that song is the Holy Spirit.
