Lyrical Miracles Chosen One #1


All the great lyrics from all the great "song-righters" are only a click away!

Our next challenge is to the tune of "Singing in the Rain". Y'know Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds and Donald O' Conner. It's only the American Film Institute's number one pick for best musical. Remember to have it related to theological themes...good, bad or ugly. (Calvinism, Arminianism, crackpots or cults). The chosen one will be announced on January 3oth!
Lyricists...start your engines!

  2. I'm totally depraved,
    Myself I could not save,
    'Til God rescued me by irresistable grace.
    No merit to plead,
    But He first chose me
    For I'm elected unconditionally.

    He purchased with the blood
    All those that He has called
    And one day we'll go to our heav'nly abode.
    By grace, we'll endure,
    Persevere 'til life's through.
    So thank Him, and give the praise He's due.

  4. Okay, I don't have any lyrics and the contest is over, but I do have a response to an atheist I once debated, who said, "'God did it' isn’t an answer dude- it merely begs the question. It is a bit like saying 'the tea pot did it' How? 'It is a magic tea pot.'"

    My response: "The professing atheist hates God partly because he/she wants to be a little god himself/herself. He/she says, 'I’m a little teapot, short (short-sighted - Mark 8:36), and stout (stiffnecked - Acts 7:51), here is my handle (the idol of false intellect which has hands but handles not - Psalm 115:4-7), here is my spout (spouting off uselessly in unbelief - Matthew 6:7), tip me over, and pour me out (his mouth pouring out foolishness - Proverbs 15:2 - and, ultimately, unless he/she receives the gift of God’s salvation by faith, being poured upon - Revelation 16:1)'"

  5. Are there no challengers? Contest doesn't end until I get up early on the 30th and judge the entries.
