Sound in Worship

Christians seem to have different stances when it comes to this question. The question is asked in these kinds of forms:

In my own encounters with this kind of question in public forums, many seem to be passionate about their own stance. In this article, I will give my own stance, in which I intend to appeal to Scripture. If we base this on feelings or opinions we will end up with a meaningless answer.

Addressing an argument that seems to be more and more common.

1 Your way, not mine, O Lord,

however dark it be;

lead me by Your own hand,

choose out the path for me.

2 Smooth let it be or rough,

it will be still the best;

winding or straight, it leads

right onward to Your rest.

3 I dare not choose my lot;

I would not if I might:

Oh, choose for me, my God,

so I will walk aright.

4 The kingdom that I seek

is Yours, so let the way

that leads to it be Yours,

or I must surely stray.

5 Lord, take my cup, and it

with joy or sorrow fill,

as best to You may seem;

Lord, choose my good and ill.

6 Lord, choose for me my friends,

my sickness or my health;

and choose my cares for me,

my poverty or wealth.

7 Not mine, not mine, the choice

in things or great or small;

Lord, be my guide, my strength,

my wisdom, and my all.

"I guess you think only perfect people can make worship music."

"Do not judge."

"There are plenty of hymns with bad theology."

"If you're worried about funding certain ministries, I guess you can't shop anywhere that's not Christian either."
