1. From House to House, From Door to Door
2. Myriads of Millions
3. We are Jehovah's Witnesses

Cordero de Dios

Don't like the more uplifting version, the more melancholic version I used to hear in church when I was a kid.

Not sure on Hymns.

On Chrstian music in general

Bach's Mass and St. Michael Passion are the best christian music, but that's only semi-related.
>>
>>1155837
Pange Lingua Gloriosi, O Sanctissima, Ave Verum, Ave Maria, Tantum Ergo, Conditor Alme Siderum and Salve Regina all rank high up there for me.

That hymn about christposters from 4chan putting their faith into action by helping the poor, feeding the hungry and providing for the needy.

Oh wait that one doesn't exist because christposters are christians in name only

I think being so insecure in your beliefs that someone saying something contradictory to them can only be a falsehood in your mind is more sad.

People who really like hymns should listen to Charles Ives if they don't already. A lot of his music is loaded up with hymn references. Two good examples would be his 4th symphony, which begins with a really beautiful setting of "Watchman! Tell us of the Night!", which is probably my favorite version of any hymn:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz86EaFWuMs

Another good one is his first string quartet, whose first movement is a fugue with subject/countersubject being two different hymns (the other movements are also based on hymns, if you give a listen):

I was walking home from class late one night at my uni and the Christian club band was performing this in the quad area. I was more confused than anything.

Paradigmatic corny pop music. Can't imagine they put much effort into it.

Music like what you're posting just disrespects people who actually dedicate their lives to the production of religious music.

Stop listening to teenagers who joined a Christian band because they wanted to get handies from girls with "no penetration" rules.

Christian hymns (and not just the lyrics, but the actual music) should reflect reverence, a combination of fear and love.

So my favorite include

Protestant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUhU0HgTq94

Catholic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4US4PSZF278

Orthodox: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AE1FzSC8DBs

Advent and Christmas music has always been my favorite, and as a Lutheran I'm biased towards Bach, such a great musician and composer.

Great is thy faithfulness is god tier; earth and all stars has the funniest lyrics: "classrooms and labs! Loud boiling test tubes! Sing to the looooorrrrddd a new song!"

I'm a fucking heathen but Lutheran hymn tradition is dope af. The Lutheran church near me has a huge fucking pipe organ and it goes hard af. Beautiful savior also has good lyrics

Latin hymns in generally really get me. It might be a Western bias but I think it's the most beautiful language.
