Here’s another idea you might pray about. There are literally hundreds of old hymns out there that have fallen out of use because their music and their language have become outdated. We don’t mean the famous hymns, the great old classic ones. We mean hymns you probably wouldn’t know, because they haven’t been sung for decades. But the thoughts, the doctrine, the sentiments they express are timeless. There’s a wealth of thematic ideas there, waiting for someone to express them in new music and new words.
