Worship to God needs the proper focus and the right songs that emphasize our praise and feelings for Him, and not overemphasize the feelings themselves. Songs using too much romantic love or adoration for God get us into dangerous and unhealthy, carnally based spiritual relationships that blind us to important truths. The enemy uses that kind of love. For details see Light Within: http://3rdcompass.org/core/go?v=LIGHT
Wrong focuses are why only songs appropriate for worship are labeled that way in the title on this channel and some popular Christian songs are excluded.
Lyrics:
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
