I thought it was time for a little light hearted humor but still making a point at the same time. I grew up listening to the old hymns. The old hymn lyrics talk about Christ and what He has already done for us by His death on the Cross. Then one day while doing the study on Galatians about Grace vs Law (works), I thought about how those who are determined to live by the Law and works would title those same hymns. I have come up with this list:
Old Hymn title
Great Is Thy Faitfulness
Because He Lives
Victory In Jesus
How Great Thou Art
I Walk Through The Garden
Just As I Am
Love Lifted Me
Only Trust Him
In The Sweet, By And By
'Tis So Sweet (To Trust In Jesus)
Wonderful, Merciful Savior
The Old Rugged Cross
New hymn titles for the Grace Challenged who just have to try to work for it:
Great Is My Faithfulness
Because I Give
Victory In Service
How Great I Art
I Weed In The Garden
Justice, I Am
Only Trust Me
For The Poor, I Will Buy And Buy
'Tis So Neat To Circumcision
Metaphorical, Allegorical Savior
And my personal favorite:
Old, Rugged And Cross
