Same :-) Classics are classics for a reason.

Me too, LW! I got sidetracked this past weekend watching Hatfield's and Mc Coys on history channel, BUT this is on certainly on my "do" list...(glad you enjoyed the song, too! ) I've been reading the book "The Resolution for Men". It is put out by the same people who made the movies "Fireproof", and "Courageous". |

I may not be much of a singer myself, but one thing I love doing and many people I know enjoy is taking the old hymns we all know and love and then mixing it up a little musically speaking. Amazing Grace for example, I did a flip on the song and made it have a very soft reggae undertone instead of the straight forward way of playing it.
EDIT: I do try to have as much taste as possible, many bands I know take a song and crank the bpm's to about 220, throw in a distortion pedal to the guitar and say its better. I see it like this, if the heart is there to praise God and the music itself does not distract from worship, than you are on the right track. Too often however many musicians I know fall into the trap of just "rocking out" instead of praising God. (Myself included on the "rocking out" part.) It is a short leash I firmly believe any musician must tie themselves to if they wish to praise God, but the rewards are so great IMHO. |

That is awesome that your daughter takes out the old hymns and sings them! For a while there I was leading our church youth band, the entire band was my students except for the singer and the one thing they loved to do more was play the old hymns and see if someone like me (who they still see as ancient at 29) can flip it to a style that their non christian friends can sit down and listen to while the whole time not changing it so much that the older folks don't recognize the song. It was a true blessing to see two VERY diverse age groups who at my church had the hardest of times coming together musically come together to praise God, simply because of the music. |

Not the same as watching the movie :-) It is encouraging to see men of God on this thread.

Mr. Mister- Kyrie Eleison
The wind blows hard against this mountain side Across the sea into my soul It reaches into where I cannot hide Setting my feet upon the road My heart is old it holds my memories My body burns a gem-like flame Somewhere between the soul and soft machine Is where I find myself again *CHORUS* Kyrie Eleison Down the road that I must travel Kyrie Eleison Through the darkness of the night Kyrie Eleison Where I'm going will you follow Kyrie Eleison On a highway in the night When I was young I thought of growing old Of what my life would mean to me Would I have followed down my chosen road Or only wished what I could be (repeat chorus) |
