The myopic view of many denominations calling themselves as Christian and playing Christian music is to promote (and this is very common), that their own music is the better if not the only Christian music. That is a lie. That is casting judgment on things that one does not understand simply because it does not fall into a groups point of experience. That is bigotry and ignorance and which is more that is stupid. Any music is Christian music, whatever the denomination and religion, for as long as it talks and tries to communicate in earnestness to ones God and is designed to bring out the best in any person. The God who wrote the music of my life and my neighbors life is an understanding God. He knows. And hopefully, sometimes He smiles. It is the people who try hard to divide us instead of uniting us towards a common goal, the people who insists their beliefs on us in the name of Christianity, they could be in trouble.

The bible that is to be the best source of Christian lyrics has the book of Psalms. Some of the line in that book talks even of pain and revenge that will scandalize present day moralists. The very same people who have egos big enough to tell us what is right from what is wrong. What is Christian music and what is not?
