Upgrade Your
Old Hymns For The New Paradigm!
by Sandy Simpson, 9/01
Time for a rewrite of the old hymns. In this day and age of Third Wave revival movements and Word-Faith dominion, the old hymns just aren't cutting it anymore. Not only are they old fashioned musically, but the lyrics are, for the most part, particularly depressing. They talk of sin, death, repentance, the cross, the blood of Jesus and a whole host of other disgusting subjects. There are also too many lyrics in them, frankly, which takes away from the "worship" atmosphere. Repetitiveness is what we need, not dead doctrinal concepts. The old hymns are just too biblical. Give us a beat to move our feet, not concepts to move our hearts and minds!
Here is a list of some hymns that could be "upgraded" to meet the
criteria
of the Third Wave, Word-Faith, Latter Rain, Manifest Sons Of God,
New Apostolic
Reformation. This list is by no means complete. If you
don't
recognize the hymns mentioned perhaps it would be worth your time
to go
back and read them, then compare what they say to the new
doctrines.
