This is a question especially for fellow worship leaders. I would love your feedback on this!
What do you do when you get requests for this or that hymn or praise song?
I’d love to hear anything you have to say about this topic, but some specific concerns I have are:
#1. How do you respond to the person (as in a member of the congregation) requesting, particularly when you don’t want to give them a “yes” or “no”?
#2. What about hymns/songs that don’t work corporately in worship, or that are theologically off? How do we approach this person (if needed) & let them know that the hymn/song is problematic, etc.?
This post was brought on because of requests I’ve received myself & also this post relating to the new Baptist Hymnal & how LifeWay Worship focused on checking the theology of hymns & praise choruses included.
