Matthew Smith and Indelible Grace performing "Arise, My Soul, Arise" at Blacknall Memorial Presbyterian Church in Durham, NC. April 24, 2007. --- For booking and CD purchases visit: http://www.igracemusic.com
@machandxb It is a joy and pleasure to worship God using all instruments! Some of these songs have never been sung at our church and are now. Once it is brought into circulation our Music director will do all kinds of things to it with violins, guitar, flutes etc. Why limit how we can praise God. How do you think the rocks would sound praising him. Sure wouldn't be quiet! Enjoy i praise quietly but let those who enjoy it loudly Shout to the Lord!
@Providential1611 so tell me, where in the bible does it say that distorted guitars are a sin, and acoustic guitar, piano, slow tempo, are not?.. you praise God how you can. If "rock" helps you to better understand and praise God, then what is the problem? pretty much, by stating that rock doesnt equal christian musician, then you strip me of my church position and tell me i am not a Christian, b/c i see God more strongly in rock music than any other! It's all just preference.
This has been stuck in my head for a couple days. I just wish the drummer used a metronome so this was played at the speed it was on the record which was considerably slower.
I for one absolutely love this song and the way it is sung. No offense to anyone that likes the "classic" hymns, but this style makes it so much easier for me to listen too. I'm a teenager that's just accepting God into my life, and this song has made my day so much better. =]
Psalm 150 1 Praise the LORD Praise God in His sanctuary Praise Him in His mighty firmament! 2 Praise Him for His mighty acts Praise Him according to His excellent greatness! 3 Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet Praise Him with the lute and harp! 4 Praise Him with the timbrel and dance Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes! 5 Praise Him with loud cymbals Praise Him with clashing cymbals! 6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD
@Providential1611 So you're suggesting that distortion - A part of the sound spectrum that GOD CREATED - does not belong to him, and cannot be used to worship him? Seriously? Just because you see many AMERICAN musicians making rock music with ill intended lyrics doesn't mean you have to blaspheme the whole genre. btw, I don't even like Christian rock... people with your mind frame just piss me off.
Okay sighing is so patronizing , commenting on ones so-called dark ages is demeaning. So not "piecing anything together". I have found the grace of listening to "modern" versions of music and love the instrumentation above. This is a great group, BUT this song could be slowed down a bit for the words to filter though more. Don't let the style get in the way of the message in either regard and don't let your superior attitude in get in the way of brotherly love. Grace goes both ways.

@machandxb you are basically insinuating that any and all entertainment is Sinful, which is highly legalistic...
Theres nothing wrong with modernizing The method the Gospel is preached
as long as you're not changing the Actual Gospel, which is repent, believe, and continue in repentance
