Neal Morse - The Creation (Long, Prog Rock classic...a concept album on the life of Martin Luther. Not kidding.)

Kemper Crabb - The Vigil (Full Album) (Click on it, the cover will make your eyes pop out.)

Holy holy holy

Tenderly Calling

Nearer my God to thee

What a friend we have in Jesus

Amazing Grace.....everyone favorite

Just as I am

Rock of ages

Bringing in the sheaves

Hymns I grew up with,,,....I agree with u....not a fanboy of contemporary church music

But if true faith holders like that I’m not in their way

Ten or so years ago I decided to write a Christian song. When I finished it I sent it to a young Christian singer of my aquintence from the deep south who laughed and called it the “most mystical Christian song” she’d ever heard. So I guess mystical ain’t good...

If you want mystical, or at least deep, try Hammock.

Hammock:I Can Almost See You (most of Hammock's stuff is instrumental)

Yes, they're Christian.

Don’t forget Jan Sobieski and the battle of Vienna.
The Muslims almost overran the heart of Europe — after Shakespeare, and AFTER the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock.

Come to the Church in the Wildwood

“There’s a church in the valley by the wildwood
No lovelier place in the dale
No spot is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale…”

I Love to tell the Story

“I love to tell The Story of Jesus and His Love”

Ehh, Rez Band kinda disproved that.

Phil Keaggy’s rearrangement of an old hymn. Well done and reverent. I can see a traditional choir do this without instrumental accompaniment.

Rare to find contemporary Christian musicians doing anything with hymns nowadays. See also my post 84 this thread; that band (two sisters and a brother) have *very* nice singing voices.

I just read ALL of the linked article.

Obligatory post. Duck, everybody.

Max later expounded a bit more, sharing the lyrics for one of the upcoming songs from his new band Sad Astronauts.

“It’s OK to be estranged / from everything that you were taught /and it’s OK / to unpack all the hopeless baggage that you bought / I know the sun it never shines / in the same place twice / and I know that life is better / with a trusted vice / but you will change / when you cave / to the universal Christ,” the lyrics read. “And it’s OK for you to lose / the shame from all the churches [sic] abuse / and it’s OK / for them to see / you don’t believe in man’s inerrancy / I know the sun it never shines / in the place you hide / I know you think it’s better / shrouded in secrets and lies / but you’ll change / when you embrace / the glowing universal Christ.”

In another tweet posted Monday, Max described himself as “anti-war, pro-peace, anti-hate, pro-live, pro-LGBTQIA, pro-BLM, pro-open mindedness, anti-narrow mindedness, pro-utopia, anti-white nationalist agenda, pro-equality, pro-vax, pro-music, anti-1%rs, pro-poor, pro-misfit-pro-Jesus, etc…”

What a cretin. Somebody threatened his meal ticket, or he's trying to remain relevant though washed up.
