I am a Daughter of Trent Sample #3.
One of the more frequent complaints of some traddys is the practice of the gathered assembly singing in “the voice of God”. One of the best examples of this is “Here I am, Lord”, here modified for right-wingers.
I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I will make my people cry.
When they have to sing this dreck
In “voice of God”
I who made the wind and rain,
Say today’s a day for pain
I won’t do it by myself
Whom shall I send?
“Here I am, Lord. Is it I Lord?
I will sing this as loud as I can
I’ll keep going, as long as it takes.
I will make Your people rue the day!”
