Probably freaks 'em out more with "A Mighty Fortress."

Yes, because that gets secularists and Catholics, both.

It's interesting how many hymns Protestants and Catholics could both sing, though, lots of our hymns seem to be written in the 7th century.

Today was the first Sunday I had to work my 6am-3pm schedule. My "lunch" is at 9:15am, which is smack-dab in the middle of my favorite radio station's Sunday gospel show.

Though the radio station is country, Sunday morning they play anything that has a spiritual bent: heck, this morning they played "Spirit In The Sky." But they played some "non-country" gospel this morning, one of my favorites, "Search Me, Lord," which I was singing as I walked back into the building:

Search me, Lord!
Please, search me, Lord!
Turn the light from Heaven
On my soul!
If you find anything that shouldn't be,
Take it out and straighten me!
I wanna be right!
I wanna be saved!
Oh, I've got to be whole!

You just have to sing that song with your arms wide open!
