Jon Acuff has a post on song lyrics that result in those who sing them “Overcommitting to God in Worship” at Stuff Christians Like:
You need a song that expresses how much you are committed to the Lord. When…hark! What does that lady worship leader start singing? Oh, these words are just right; they express so beautifully everything on your heart:
“I would wrestle a million hungry wild jackals for You, Jesus / And I would walk barefoot over sharp broken glass / For just one moment with you, my Lord.”
Wait, what? You would have to be crazy to sing something like that in church.
There’s even a template that helps you write your own overcommitted worship song.
The song would start like this:
1. _______________ (Personal pronoun) would ____________ (motion verb) a _______________________ (number with lots of zeros) __________________ (measure of distance) because of Your __________ (adjective) ______________ (attribute of God)!
