most modern praise songs are like commercial jingles, except more simplistic!

Yet you can’t whistle the tune, you can’t feel lifted in spirit by them. the songs just set ther and do nothing except moan and groan take up time.
At church, one canned song I particularly hate has a final refrain of “Thank you lord, thank you Lord, Thank you Lord...” Then it begins to fade out and people begin to set down.
SUDENLY the music comes back loud, and everyone jumps back to their feet...”THANK YOU LORD THANK YOUR LORD thank you lord...” then fades out.
You start to set down and her it comes again! “THANK YOU LORD THANK YOUR LORD thank you Lord..”
Then the song fades out and everyone remains standing because they are not sure if it will start the refrain over again. It is kind of rough on us old people.
Several years back I was trying to listen to a Christian radio station. they played the same song over three times within 20 minutes. The “singer” was moaning and groaning with as much pieity as he could muster. I felt that someone should shoot him just to put him out of his misery.
Give me the good old hymns from the OLD Baptist hymnal or other older songs, or a good dose of THE CHUCK WAGON GANG any day!
Victory in Jesus.
On Christ the solid Rock I stand.
or some Issac Watts songs.
No moaning and groaning in these!
