I definitely over-generalized. There are indeed some, even many, modern songs that are very theologically sound and powerful.
But you must admit that “me-centric” is indeed a trend in modern worship.
I’m probably as sick of “Jesus is my boyfriend” “praise” songs as you are! I think it stems from the “seeker-focused” squishyness that passes for evangelism in many contemporary churches - heaven forbid we just preach the gospel, rather than trying to figure out what the unchurched want to hear to make them feel good about themselves and then giving it to them. There’s just some really great, worshipful music out there that deserves a hearing.
Interesting dovetail to this thread.

That is true.
I just ignore those or don't sing them when they're played.
