You know, there seems to be a lack of creativity in the comments here. So many people just saying the same thing. It seems like not much thought went into them. Blah blah blah. And that David guy in the Psalms, zero talent. It's just "praise the Lord, praise the Lord." Really overrated.

@guitarblowfish, Rootedst hit it rite on da head...as a worship leader we have to right/sing music in our churches that everyone can join n and sing for a time of corporate worship through music...to do this the lyrics and music have to be what i like to call the 3 S's...Simple, Singable and Scriptural. Hope this helps

@zachattack5150 the 2nd guitarist does kinda have the expression of Why am I here? LOL:-) @ one point he threw in sum harmonies and then he just gave up

[Rootedst]

@guitarblowfish I'm sorry, but I think you're misunderstanding what "corporate" worship is. When he says he wants the song to be as corporate as possible he's inferring that the song draws together people in worship. Corporate worship is worship with more than just yourself and Jesus involved. We are the Church and when we worship together that is corporate. Forget everything you know about worldy terms when applied to the language of God.

The lyrics aren't shallow.... but rather the lyrics aren't original. I can think of 20 other christian songs that sound the same or similar. It's the cookie cutter approach that must christian artists conform to that I have a problem with.

[guitarblowfish]

I find it interesting he said he wanted the song as "corporate" as possible. ??? I don't get this christian formula that all these christian artists conform to... Jesus would never conform to anything corporate. Write a song that is original and stands on its own... that is organic and real. Geez

this is real awkward for the dude sittin on the side

@trekkerjc Listen to Shane and Shane or Phil Wickham.

Shane and Shane have deeper lyrics.

[GreySugizo]

trust me this issue is something that concerns me too. and it sparks an interest for me to make songs to have deep meaning both lyric and music. its a constant question we must ask ourselves. for example, does this song need a solo? does it need me to sing at a certain key for a different feeling, should i play a song with complex chords? why am i doing what doing?

everything is very important, especially that you are offering something to the King of Kings XD lol but im sure you know that!

[GreySugizo]

yeah agree, we can only observe their songs from the outside because we cant assume that they didnt think deeply about it. we cant really judge, because our judgment is not perfect. do your best to offer what you have both mind and spirit. Paul ask us to be conscious of our praise that we do things with careful thought as well as the spirit

[trekkerjc]

good thought, yet i dont know how many artists create their music to be simple purposefully... and how many artists create their lyrics simply because they have a catchy tune....

new song unto the Lord, joyful noise to the Lord..... its as the Lord sees i guess
