WCC Hymnal


The World Council of Churches is putting out a new hymnal. It will be called "Songs of the Mediocre." Instead of altering ancient texts to be more inclusive, they have altered them to fit the average American lifestyle of today's churchgoer. Some of the new hymns are listed below:Take My Life and Let Me Be
It is My Secret What God Can Do
When the Saints Go Sneaking In
My Hope is Built on Nothing Much
I am Fairly Certain That My Redeemer Liveth
Lord Keep Me Loosely Connected to Your Word
OH, How I Like Jesus
All Hail The Influence of Jesus' Name
Joyful, Joyful We Think Thee Pretty Good
Above Average is Thy Faithfulness
Blest be the Tie That Doesn't Cramp My Style
We Give Thee but Still Think We Own
What an Acquaintance We Have In Jesus
When Peace Like a Trickle
Pillow of Ages, Fluffed for Me
There Shall Be Sprinkles Of Blessing
Where He Leads Me, I Will Consider Following
Sit Up, Sit Up for Jesus
Amazing Grace, How Interesting the Sound
Go Tell It on the Speed Bump
I Surrender Some.
or, alternately;
I Surrender -- NOT!
