For a second there I thought you might be implying that Mormons do not sing hymns about Jesus, and I am certain that you knew better than that.

No I was implying that until you come up with some proof that they do sing hymns about the LORD Jesus Christ of the Christian Bible, the subject is left at “Mormons do not sing hymns about Jesus”

so yes I did “know better than that”

I knopw while Mormons sing praise songs about Joey Smith as their savior who shed his blood for them...

The Mormons dont sing about the LORD Jesus Christ as their God and Savior who shed His Blood on the cross and died to save them...

So the invitation is still open...

Supply such a song or hymn...

I am going to call you out on this one. It would appear that you are blatantly lying here. First off, we do not consider "Joey Smith" as our "savior who shed his blood" for us (or any other kind of savior). That isn't even a misrepresentation. That is a lie.

Second, the vast majority of the hymns we sing are about Jesus. In fact, I seem to remember it was just the other day that this crowd was complaining that Mormons stole too many hymns from non-Mormon sources.

So, when a orthodox Christian sings "A Mighty Fortress" they are singing about Jesus, but when a Mormon sings that same hymn they are not?

I know, I know, when a Mormon talks (or sings) about Jesus, it is the wrong Jesus. I understand that that is the key difference in these discussions. We can certainly discuss that without having to resort to falsehood, can we?

184
Upon the Cross of Calvary

1. Upon the cross of Calvary
They crucified our Lord
And sealed with blood the sacrifice
That sanctified his word.

2. Upon the cross he meekly died
For all mankind to see
That death unlocks the passageway
Into eternity.

3. Upon the cross our Savior died,
But, dying, brought new birth
Through resurrection’s miracle
To all the sons of earth.
