Just for fun! What’s your favorite traditional hymn and what’s your favorite contemporary Christian song? My favorite traditional hymn is “Old Rugged Cross” and my favorite contemporary Christian song is “Three Wooden Crosses” by Randy Travis.
I’m sure that this question is going to get lots of “bogus” answers, but any real answers would be great!
God bless

I prefer hers
Probably a toss-up between St. Patrick’s Breastplate and Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones. But Come Down, O Love Divine would be right up there, too.
Just a Closer Walk With Thee
Amazing Grace
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Sweetest Name I Know!
How Great Thou Art
I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene
And wonder how He could love me
A sinner condemned ‘unclean’
How marvellous How wonderful
And my song shall ever be
How marvellous How wonderful
Is my Saviour’s love for me.
He took my sins and my sorrows
He made them His very own
He bore the burden to Calvary
And suffered and died alone
In pity angels beheld Him
Who came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night.
This song brings me to my knees in wonder of God’s love for me. How truly marvellous, and wonderful!
“Imagine” by John Lennon
I have many favorites, but one traditional hymn would be “Softly and Tenderly”. A favorite contemporary would be “Mary Did You Know?”.
I like Three Wooden Crosses, but for more traditional songs, I like Amazing Grace sung in Cherokee.
blessed assurance .
amazing grace
why because by prayer I have come to the Messiah’s amazing grace as a Jew=yes and I have prayed and seen miracles to deliver me
and i think many people even without prayer know in their heart Jesus rescued them-even point in fact as in the salvation message for heaven too when we believe.
many life saving even from the dead are recorded the bible old testament is written to the Jewish people and an example to the believers in Jesus.
but as in my life too-there is still truth and error-truth from the word of God as Jesus says and yet still get demonic influence too some tell of near death experiences for going into the occult and other things apart from the bible-Look at Jim Jones-throwing down the bible as saying anyone that believes the paper God leave-and then going to the cool aid death deal and moving the followers to South America.
Jesus said if you add to my words you will have plagues=Revelation 22nd last chapter of the Bible
yet in coming to Jesus it has helped me get heavenly insights too to protect my life, yet there are deamons as Jesus says coming as creatures of ‘light’=the greatest protection is prayer-and to be forwarned is to be forarmed.
there is a fine line here-if we are talking about the life
this is how I came to know the way=
Jesus said “I am the way the truth and the life, no one cometh unto the father but by me.” John 14:6 some believe Jesus and others say they do and reject him.
this is what helped me see the issue clearly and know the Messiah as my best friend=faith/trust “Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” Romans 10:17
Jesus said heaven and earth will pass away but my word will never pass away. and if you add or take out of my word you will have plagues/your name taken out of the book of life=Revelation 22
God is God and can do anything-even manifest himself in the form of a man-as promised-Isaiah 53 “He will be rejected and lay down his life to make atonment for our sins.”
His salvation his death redemption for us-while saying Jesus was without sin born from a virgin to live pure and die for our sins
Like love your enemies as you love yourself
He also said “If you have seen me you have seen the Father.”
this is how I as a Jew came to know Jesus too=as promised Jesus is God and gives good peace & gives good advice = Isaiah 9:6
“Unto us a child will be born, a son given and he will be almighty God, the wonderful counselor, and the prince of peace.
this is what helped me to prepare for life and my future, and it works=Romans 1 tells it comes from unthankfulness and worshiping the created instead of the creator. But redemption/salvation to be new in heart with new thoughts is available=
in Jesus amazing grace that saved me=John 3 repented of sins and got born again
He said to us “I love you and knock on your heart door, if you repent and turn quickly to me, I will come into your heart door and be your friend, and you mine if you ask me in. Revelation 3:19&20
so I prayed and it workedHe is my Messiah now savior and best friend= “Jesus come into my heart, I am sorry for my sins (even one lie) help be do better and be my friend, amen.
prayin for you Romans 1:16 unashamed of the truth to care and share the gospel, David and keep lookin up and you will never be let down =
Shalom/Salam in the prince of Peace, help others to think about life and death -and the gospel in Jesus of the story heart to heart
One of my favorite hymns starts “As the dear panteth for the water…” (Can’t for sure remember the name though)…
I also like to hear How Great Thou Art because it was apparently my Grandfathers favorite, and I remember it at my Grandmothers funeral as well. It means a lot to me because of that.
As for more current stuff.. I have to say that I really like a lot of Ray Boltz songs.. Especially “The Hammer” (I believe is the name).
Jesus Loves Me this i know, the Bible says so.
Yes Jesus loves me ,
My favorite old traditional Hymn is probably “Amazing Grace”
My favorite or one of them for contemporary is probably “Once Again”
“once again I look upon the cross where you died, I’m humbled by Your mercy, and I’m broken inside, once again I thank You, once again I pour out my life, Thank you for the cross, thank You for the cross, thank You for the cross my friend”
My favorite traditional hymn is “How Great Thou Art,” maybe because I see God in nature.
