I discovered the last one early this year. I've known the song for many years but, just like it more since Jnauary.

Lord prepare me
To be a sanctuary
Pure and holy
Tried and true
And with thanksgiving
I'll be a living
Sanctuary
For you

You are trying to be funny.

How do you know a Christian here apart from self declaration?

Or is this 'every non-Muslim is automatically a Christian'?

And considering we have to have a declaration thingy before posting, I doubt geninue Christians would go through the hassle of declaring belief in Allah to insult Muslims.
I can't decipher who is the genuine christian or not,but I know that they do come to thread as imposters to insults, trying to make point they are real christian,kept wondering what kind of Christians are these.its disgusting

while I don't agree with the bolded it might also mean everything one drunk goro-chewing nigga wrote about God is great. So really that line dey one kind one kind

Everything about God. Including the mistery of his creations is great. The mad man eat from a dirt bean all sort of germs and bacteria not seen. He lives. I eat from same I have a running stomach and infection. Yet I look at myself in relations to the mad man and conclude am healthier than him. No he is healthier than me in the real sense.

So you miss that. And you may also miss something about the drunk man. it falls under the "unknown".

The following are the top songs on my list


3. Osingo singo, praise the Lord:
Someone must have invented this sweeter version which sounds ‘better’ than the original one. The person must have thought the original version was boring and as such decided to give it a nice touch.

The right thing is, ' O sing my soul and praise the Lord' .

The correct version of this is actually:

Praise the Lord, O singers sing on... Praise the Lord.

Well done though.

If a person seeks validation (likes) from externals, they have done a stupid thing. Compliments and condemnation are things that are in the power of other people. To place our value on them, is to surrender into slavery, as our happiness becomes determined by the actions of other people. Inner validation is what every man should seek.
in other words, if we find our hapiness and motivation from the praise or likes of other, then their criticism can demotivate/grief us.

There is none holy as the Lord.
There is none beside thee.
Neither (is there) there are any God like our God.
There is none holy as the Lord.

If someone does not claim to be a Christian, do not assume they are because they have a non-Muslim moniker.

Meaning : it is Don it is done, Jesus has Don what no man can do.

As a Christians while growing up we were accustomed to a lot of Christian songs.

There are songs you must have been singing throughout your younger years only for you to be informed that you've been singing the wrong words all along.

Often times we hear wrongly the words to some of our favourite songs and at other times we repeat the lyrics we’ve heard from others and continue singing the wrong lyrics for ages.

The following are the top songs on my list :

1. We go hey, hey your name debade all the way:
This is one of the gospel songs that people have invented their own version. The appropriate words are "We go dey hail, hail your name, day by day all the way".

2.. The most Excellency is Jesus :
This is a very popular Nigerian song sang mostly by Christians. However, unknown to them, they have been singing it wrongly.

The original lyrics is, ' the most excellent king is Jesus '.

3. Osingo singo, praise the Lord:
Someone must have invented this sweeter version which sounds ‘better’ than the original one. The person must have thought the original version was boring and as such decided to give it a nice touch.

The right thing is, ' O sing my soul and praise the Lord' .

4. With thanksgiving, as we are living, sanctuary, for you :
This is another song that people have invented their own version. The correct version is, ‘ With thanksgiving, I'll be a living, sanctuary, for you' .

This is by no way Exhaustive, pls add yours.

Nice.

The one I don't understand is:

Almighty God..... You will never share your Glory with anybody

I was like, wtf, why are we serving him if he is not to share His Glory with us?
.
God never shares his glory with any one so don't expect it..

The idea of singing praises to man or god does not sit well with me, a need for praise or worship comes from a place of insecurity.

So in other words you're an atheist?

How can God share his glory with men that he created? Go and create your own and share your own glory with it.

Your insecurity is what pushed you to type this. But you will be alright when you understand the ways of God.

You came from heaven to earth to show the way, from the earth to the cross my debt you paid

Actually, it's ' my debt to pay'

I disagree.

It's now a crime to ask questions?

When you want to answer a question, first cool down.

Almost ten members have mentioned me, yet they talk the way a sensible person should talk.

As a Christian, it must show in you and your behaviors.

God Help Us.

Take Care.
