You’re doing it all wrong!
Feb 23 2010

You know that moment when you realize that you’ve been singing a song wrong your entire life? How about a song you sang practically every Sunday in church since you were 3-years-old? That happened to me over the weekend when I challenged Jasper friend John Byars to complete the following chorus which the members of Jasper’s First Baptist Church sang at the end of each service for the better part of 3 decades.

    I’m so glad I’m a part of the Family of God,
    I’ve been washed in the fountain, cleansed by His Blood!
    Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod,
    For I’m part of the family,
    The Family of God

That part in bold? I’ve always said ‘hands’. Makes sense, right? I thought so, too.

    No way! I thought it was, “Join hands with Jesus…”

    How ’bout:

    We are one in the bond of love
    We are one in the bond of love
    We have joined our spirit with the Spirit of God
    We are one in the bond of love

    My hands are hurting thinking about my dad squeezing the mess out of them!
