LOL!
Absolutely!
You are welcome. I have even heard that particular version performed in church. No way would the original belong in a church.
“she broke your throne and she cut your hair”
This is the change in David’s relationship with God. He transgressed bigly with Bathsheba. He is no longer the model king. “She cut your hair” - he is no longer a Nazarene, wholly dedicated to God.
To me this piece has always screamed David and Bathsheba. But it is quite rough for a church setting.
In spite of David’s transgressions, the Lord continued to bless him and he remains in the imperfect line of our perfect King.
But you already knew this stuff.
I don’t have a problem with Trump using this music. David and Trump are imperfect and drawn to beautiful women. David slayed Goliath just as we pray that Trump will slay the deep state.
Have a great weekend. :)
Sang this today in chuch. LOVE IT!
Love it, too.
Today we sang “Come Thou Fount”, another favorite of mine.
