I realized how anthropocentric a lot of the music was

Hardly a new malady to afflict Christianity. "I have decided to follow Jesus" isn't exactly contemporary, but most hymnbooks contain it.

Modern praise and worship music runs the gamut, from bordering on the heretical to the inane to the simplistic to the weighty. There are some gems in there; as I sit waiting for my class to begin, "God of Wonders" comes to mind.

Excellent song. Caedmon's Call has written many a good song. MercyMe also...I Can Only Imagine struck me as a very worshipful song despite the abundance of "I-Me-My"

God of Wonders is good stuff.

Bless the Lord by Jeff Deyo rocks!
And the Caedmon's Call praise CD is really good.
