These Aren’t Praise Song Lyrics

Sunday, August 16th, 2009

When I think of “praise songs”, even the ones where Christ is foremost, we’re in there doing something good for God. But check out this line from “On What Has Now Been Sown”:

To Thee our wants are known, From Thee are all our pow’rs;
Accept what is Thine own And pardon what is ours.

There we are receiving and doing nothing good on our own and even repenting for what we do add. That is our theology and that won’t be in the CCLI top 40 anytime soon because us as powerless sinner doesn’t sell records.
