“Jesus is my boyfriend” songs

LOL! That's what our music director calls them!

Quick, the antidote:

O Sing Joyfully (Batten)

Listen for "blow up the trumpet in the new moon, e'en in the time appointed". A brilliant musical phrase. It almost takes your breath away.

Lovely, but it’s a concert choir and most churches don’t sing those beautiful sacred melodies with the kind of ability these choirs do. I do miss the old sacred songs and have tried to sing some of them, or did before I got sick.

See you, and raise.

(Ah, internet ephemera. I once found a wealth of beautiful acapella congregational psalm singing from various (mostly) Free Church of Scotland websites, not a one of which I can find now. Got 'em saved here, but wish I had something to link to.)

Hey, we sang that, in canon I think, across our “mega-church” that seats anywhere from 1500 to 2000 depending on the size of the bodies. ;) And then Mass started.

Oh! Jesus is my Boyfriend
Yes He’s the God For Me
I met Him at a mixer at
The Cross of Calvary
He never asks me questions
Or makes demands of me
‘Cause Jesus is my Boyfriend

Yes! Jesus is my Boyfriend
He’s not like other guys
My girlfriends love his dreamy hair
And rave about his eyes
We both love rockin’ music
So it’s really no surprise
That Jesus is my Boyfriend
