LOL!!! I knew I could get you going.
To your point I do know what you are saying. I remember being surprised a couple of years ago when watching the POA webcast of their service to see the guitar as the featured instrument and the B3 and piano relegated to a supporting role.
It is definitely different than traditional Pentecostal music.
Oh, and there is absolutely nothing Episcapalian about my churches music. More like lively Baptist or laid back Spirit Filled.

Now don't fall over with a heart attack but I like a little of it.
It's a refreshing change up BUT after a while it can get boring
and SOME ( not all of the songs are wordy). when I say boring,
the chord structure is usually 3 or 4 chords at the most- nothing
challenging musically. however, having said that, I think a lot
of people like it because musically, it's not intimidating. most
congregations are muscically very limited. so the new stuff they
can learn quickly and chime right in so it does have its benefits
and finally, it's ultiamatley about the people entering into
God's presence

You are not kidding about some of the songs being "wordy". You also forgot to mention that some of them have little or no melody.
I was joking the other day that if people are worshipping and entering God's precence with some of these songs we definitely know it is God because there certainly is no catchy melody or groove they are getting into.
Like you I find some of the songs refreshing but others just boring and examples of poor songwriting.

You are being absurd if you don't acknowledge that music can play an important part in worship.
There are songs that have words with great meaning that when sung in unity focuses peoples thoughts on the same thing. Perhaps an aspect or attribute of God.
Of course we don't worship the music but don't act like music plays no factor in worship.
One can certainly worship without music but what a blessing music can be!

YOu are right! Many times, it's the worship service that prepares the atmosphere for the Word of God.
Get the wrong songs, or even great songs with no anointing and you end up with lifeless worship service....Then many times a preacher has to struggle during his message... all aspects of a service work together! Thank God for worship leaders and musicians that seek God for His will instead of just getting up to sing a nice song with rhyming lyrics!

Re: TN campmeeting
My favorite new song (at least new to me) is the Revelation Song. Do you do it, Mark? It's SO powerful!
