On Sunday evening I went with a couple of friends to see a worship musician. While his music was not bad, it was not good. Sure he was great on the electric guitar, but when it comes to song writing, not so much. The fact of the matter is that Christian song writers are not that great. Because it seems like every five or ten years they throw in some new adjectives, like marvelous or everlasting, into the lyrical blender that is Worship music.
I don't know if they have just gotten lazy or if they think people won't listen to original and fresh worship music. Perhaps it is the fear of change, all the people that can't feel God with music that is not identical to the same old stuff they have been feeling God to the last X years. I'm not saying that all the Christian music is like that, just most of it.
