Church Songs...
... that doesn't make sense.
1. Rock on my soul, in the bossom of Abraham
What da heck does that mean? Rock on my soul.. Is it like Yea! Rock On! My soul!
And to add to it, they go.
"So high you can never get over it, So low you can never get under it.. "
what does that suppose to mean? Under and Over what?
Someone help me out, am I singing this song wrong??

I know its lovely because of the tune. But I get the way you explain it.. So that Rock is Rock like mountain not Rock on like Enjoy on or Have fun. And then what does Bossom of Abraham got to do with it?

remember that peter was known as the rock JESUS is the rock of ages, it means that a rock is solid, so in CHRIST is everything. ABRAHAM bosom bring forth many generations, in JESUS we can enjoy because he is our protector, ABRAHAM was a great man so the writer of that chorus was singing that song letting us know how he feels about the father of all nations.

I think the song is supposed to be "The Rock of my soul". (Which is referring to Christ the solid rock.)

Listening to this Christian Metal, I don't even know what they are screaming.. its sound like someone whose demons were about to come out of his body.. Blood of Jesus..
But its almost similar to when pentecostals and praying, yelling and stomping their feet on the floor
Even some preachers scream and yell when they get to the peek..
But back to songs that doesn't make sense..

Chineke Idi Nma. Na wa for them sneakers and dancing in the circle. That was fuuny. What year was this made? It looks like something Brother Lazarus and Caleb/Thomas, I know its Brother Lazarus and someone or what is that Christian groups in the 80's that sang, "I have the joy, The joy of salvation, joy everyday!" Joy joy joy everyday.." Some of those songs sound mournful in those days.. But they were praise songs..
Anyway, have you seen some Ibo women christian song that has something to do with Jesus/God and Ladder.. "Jesus is the ladder" or something and they have ladder in the video. Someone showed me the video awhile ago and I was wondering what were they singing??
