Just As I Am

Lyrics by Charlotte Elliott (1835), music by William Bradbury (1849).
"I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men..."
Luke 15:18-19

But I would like to ask you, where in the bible is there an example of onde leader at the head of the congregation? my only intention is to show what the bible says, and if you are a person who seeks God's will, you'll understand what I'm talking about... 1Cor 14:29-33: "Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints."

    When she was a girl, my wife attended worship services and a “Christian” school where pastors and evangelists used manipulation techniques. Sally came to associate this song with that kind of abuse so I have avoided listening to this video when she was at home. She isn’t right now so this is my first time listening to it. My parents died in the ‘80s but WOW does this ever remind me of them. Not that they used this particular song very much but everyone in our family sang and played instruments so we had lots of harmony at home and we were often invited to provide musical offerings during worship services. There were six of us so, in some of the places where we lived, our family was the nearest some folks had ever come to hearing a live orchestra or choir. One of those places a small congregation had a pump organ. The tone of that instrument when my mother played it was remarkably similar to that of many of your renditions; perhaps this one at least as much as any. Someone else mentioned breath control. I think I was not yet eight when my parents began teaching me how to avoid breathing in the middle of a phrase. (I can’t watch TV weathercasters. All the ones I’ve tried to watch in the last couple of decades breathe in the middle of almost every phrase!) If this kind of harmony existed in the music of the majority of today’s congregations, there would be more harmony (of another kind) in our nation and in our world.
