Amen We praise you Lord Jesus, Come into our trembling hearts and fix your dwelling place in us. Never to leave us Lord. Oh perfect thine new creation Lord amen.
Absolutely sublime. Why can't more churches use organs? It befuddles me that many of todays youth prefer mediocre works to majestic works. God bless our hymnwriters. I'm convinced that turning church into a rock concert is a sin.
@s007ja But it's about expressing whats in your heart in worship, so it shouldn't matter in what type of music worship is performed in. Anyway, I think old hymns are beautiful and I love singing modern worship songs so a we shouldn't forget the traditional but also consider whats more appealing to the youth (I don't know if I'm allowed to call us youth when I'm only 20 but oh well!) And I think it's probably a sin to call any type of worship 'mediocre'.
Charles Wesley was touched by the throne of Almighty God to have written such hymns! The Holy Spirit must have thrived from him. Praise the Lord for such men! We need them again! God Bless You All in the Saviour!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (February 20), I filled in at a local Lutheran Church. I played this as the closing hymn. However, it was to the tune, HYFRYDOL, composed by Rowland H. Prichard, 1811-1887. It is #631 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
@TheLaurlo i think some modern hymns have good words as well. a balance and common sense is needed! (i do agree with you about dancing generation tho lol)... the main difference between hymns like this, and a lot of modern songs is that songwriters in the last 10yrs-present write all about how good God is 'to me', and about 'im so rubbish', and all the things God has done 'for us'...
@mollybob ...the focus has switched from God's never-changing amazingness to singing about how lowly we are and thanking himfor rescuing us anyway and for givingus stuff. theres not too manyjust praising him for who he is without a mention of ourselves!
@mollybob i think the words to Immortal Invisible were altered at some point in the recent past to include "we wither and perish as leaves on the trees", where the original words were unrelentingly about God's amazingness??? this would be an early example of what you are arguing.... i am not sure you are entirely on solid ground though. Many of the new praise songs are simplistic, to be sure, but focus exclusively on an attribute or attributes of our awesome God.

V2 has bent- not love
V3 ends with "perfect love
V4 has glory into glory
Lol and thanks-JC
