I am seriously blown away by all the good thoughts in this thread! I really can't add to them. But I would like to say this: your mentioning this constant theme in fundies' beloved hymns made me realize one reason fundies dislike modern Christian music so much. They say it's "so full of self" when really what it's full of is the joy, victory, and peace of being sanctified and in a close relationship with the Savior. Are we all nothing without Christ? Yes, indeed. But with Him, we are everything and can do all things! Why continue to focus on our worthless sin natures when we should be rejoicing in Him and who we are through Him?

Very good point.

Behold, what manner of love is this, that Christ should be arraigned and we adorned; that the curse should be laid on His head and the crown set on ours. –Thomas Watson
