great new song, “everything” by tim hughes. his new cd, “holding nothing back,” is really growing on me. my first impression was that there weren’t as many good corporate worship-type songs on it as his previous cd, “when silence falls” (which, incidentally, is one of my all-time favorite worship cd’s.) but the more i listen to this one, the more i love the songs. it’s been really good for personal worship times in my car and such….

two remade hymns in a row today. i gotta say, that was very satisfying. i always get thanked by several people every time we sing a hymn in our church. we have a lot of people who grew up in church, but left at some point and are just coming back. i think the hymns connect them to their young faith, and they are an encouraging reminder that it wasn’t God that they left, but rather out-of-touch religion. the hymns (a lot of them, not all) are rich with lyrical depth and good theology (certainly not all of them).

i had a good time in worship today.
