Just for fun! What's your favorite traditional hymn and what's your favorite contemporary Christian song? My favorite traditional hymn is "Old Rugged Cross" and my favorite contemporary Christian song is "Three Wooden Crosses" by Randy Travis.
I'm sure that this question is going to get lots of "bogus" answers, but any real answers would be great!
God bless

I like Three Wooden Crosses, but for more traditional songs, I like Amazing Grace sung in Cherokee.

My favorite old traditional Hymn is probably "Amazing Grace"
My favorite or one of them for contemporary is probably "Once Again"
"once again I look upon the cross where you died, I'm humbled by Your mercy, and I'm broken inside, once again I thank You, once again I pour out my life, Thank you for the cross, thank You for the cross, thank You for the cross my friend"

Probably a toss-up between St. Patrick's Breastplate and Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones. But Come Down, O Love Divine would be right up there, too.

One of my favorite hymns starts "As the dear panteth for the water..." (Can't for sure remember the name though)...
I also like to hear How Great Thou Art because it was apparently my Grandfathers favorite, and I remember it at my Grandmothers funeral as well. It means a lot to me because of that.
As for more current stuff.. I have to say that I really like a lot of Ray Boltz songs.. Especially "The Hammer" (I believe is the name).

I have many favorites, but one traditional hymn would be "Softly and Tenderly". A favorite contemporary would be "Mary Did You Know?".

My favorite traditional hymn is "How Great Thou Art," maybe because I see God in nature.

Just a Closer Walk With Thee

I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene
And wonder how He could love me
A sinner condemned 'unclean'
How marvellous How wonderful
And my song shall ever be
How marvellous How wonderful
Is my Saviour's love for me.
He took my sins and my sorrows
He made them His very own
He bore the burden to Calvary
And suffered and died alone
In pity angels beheld Him
Who came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night.
This song brings me to my knees in wonder of God's love for me. How truly marvellous, and wonderful!
