    Robert, as I have grown in the Lord, I have grown in my appreciation to the solid doctrine the hymns so often display. It is a source of great pleasure and blessing to me.

      Thanks for adding to the discussion. Yes, hymns can be a great teaching tool–something they are supposed to be, according to Colossians 3:16. That is not to say that all hymns are without any doctrinal missteps. We have to be careful to get our theology from the Bible, not from our hymns. But they can support the truths of Scripture, and make it memorable, when they hit the target. God bless.
