This page contains a history of updates by year.  It does not contain review releases, only updates to reviews and pages.  However, only 2023 contains a full list.  The rest of the years are incomplete.  I’ll continue to fill in updates as I have time until everything is added.

All columns are sortable and searchable.

Jeremy RiddleAll Hail King Jesus2023/04/13My apologies! My first draft of this song contained me criticizing “There on the cross made for sinners” based on the historical nature of Roman vs. Old Testament law in terms of how God metes out punishment.

Hillsong WorshipWhat a Beautiful Name2023/04/12After prayerfully considering Steve Barhydt's comments, I came to the conclusion that he is correct: Verse 2, line 1 is about God's desire for what He wants for heaven, which includes people like us worth saving.  I adjusted my commentary and restored the original score to 10/10.

Hillsong UNITEDOceans (Where Feet May Fail)2023/02/08To remain consistent with the artist’s actual name, I capitalized the word “United”.

Timothy BrindleThe Preciousness of Time2023/01/03D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.'s comment helped me understand that Brindle wasn't judging Jackson's salvation.  He was referencing Remember the Time to make a point about regretting decisions.  This increased the song's overall score from 9/10 to 9.5/10

Hillsong WorshipWhat a Beautiful Name2021/01/26After much prayer and discussion with Neal Cruco and Tim Adams, along with decreased confidence about Verse 2's opening line, I decided to alter this review.  All sections were updated, except for Introduction.  I reduced its overall score from 10/10 to 8.5/10.
Michael EnglishMary, Did You Know2021/01/19The original review incorrectly stated that English was with the Singing Samaritans from 1980 to 1982.
HousefiresGood Good Father2021/01/10After reading Greg, and re-reading my review and Housefire's lyrics, I'm not sure why I wrote that I had an issue with Chorus.  I removed my comments and slightly raised my score on section 1, pushing its overall score into the green, from 7.5/10 to 8/10.
Elevation WorshipGraves Into Gardens (Feat. Brandon Lake)2021/01/08After prayerfully reading BRANDON D LEQUIEU's comment, I made a few alterations to dull my harshness of "every" in section 1 and in my concluding statements.  I also added an alternative explanation for others to consider in section 2.  Finally, I slightly raised my score for section 1, raising this song's rating from 6.5/10 to 7/10.

John Mark McmillanHow He Loves2020/12/13Upon prayerfully considering Erik Michael Delange's comment, I removed references to Crowder's "unforeseen kiss".  This is a review of Mcmillan's version and Crowder's "unforeseen kiss" is vague at best and unbiblical at worst, neither of which is helpful.  This does not affect my rating.

Bethel MusicChampion (Feat. Dante Bowe)2020/11/24Commenter Mark pointed out a huge error in my commentary, that salvation could be earned.  While I was attempting to communicate righteousness could technically be earned, it doesn't make sense of the context of Verse 1, which speaks of carrying Christ's victory.  I also unfairly downgraded section 3.  Therefore, I updated my review, raising its overall score from 7/10 to 8.5/10.
Pat BarrettCanvas and Clay (Feat. Ben Smith)2020/11/19Added a link to the studio version in section 1.  Also, I increased section 1's score.  I penalized it too much for repetition, increasing its overall score from 9/10 to 9.5/10.
Hillsong UNITEDAnother in the Fire2020/11/04In light of Morgan's comment, I lifted my criticism regarding Chorus 1.  I also fleshed out section 4 and updated my conclusion to fit my present position.  This raised my score from 8/10 to 8.5/10.

Jesus CultureMove (Feat. Chris McClarney)2020/10/15Commenter Savannah Moore noticed an inconsistency with this review alongside my recent changes to Sinach's Waymaker and showed me Biblically how I was mistaken about God's justice.  I've updated my review and significantly altered my scoring, raising it from 6.5 to 8.5/10.
Cindy WalkerChild of the King2020/10/12Commenters Neal Cruco and Steve Barhydt both challenged me on my criticism that the song is self-focused.  I re-examined the lyrics and my own Biblical analysis, prayerfully seeking wise counsel.  What I saw is personified humility, describing one's self as trajected from a state of lowliness to an adopted child of God. I updated the score from 8.5/10 to 9.5/10.  I also plan to go back and examine all other reviews that I criticize a song for similar reasons.

Also, Steve is correct: Cindy Walker is the original author.  Since I already wrote the review under the requester's submitted artist, I added an entry in the Song Review Index for Cindy and added her information to the introduction.
Wolves at the GateA Voice in the Violence2020/10/07Removed some extraneous text in the introduction.  I accidentally copied it from another Wolves at the Gate review.
KbNot Today Satan (Feat. Andy Mineo)2020/10/01Release year contained the album instead of the year.  I corrected it.  I also added my previous review of Crowns & Thorns (Oceans) to the introduction.
Kari JobeForever2020/09/23Added further justification as to why I downgraded the song based on Verse 2, line 2.
MercyMeFlawless2020/09/23After prayerfully considering Neal Cruco's comments, I decided to update my review.  Since I have no other criticism to offer, this significantly increased its score, from 7/10 to 10/10.
Audrey AssadI Shall Not Want2020/09/21Added further commentary to Verse 2, line 1, in response to Brendan's comment.  This did not affect my score.  Also, repaired several spelling errors.

HousefiresGood Good Father2020/08/13Part of the closing comments ended up in section 4.  I moved it down.
Elevation WorshipThere Is a Cloud2020/08/12I forgot how to count when I first wrote this introduction.  Elevation Worship released eight EP's, not nine.  At least, as of this review.  I also forgot the release year for their album There Is a Cloud.
All Sons and DaughtersGreat Are You Lord2020/08/09Yona reminded me of my criticism of Sinach's Way Maker in their use of the word "every" that I missed on this review.  I corrected it, lowing this song's score from 9/10 to 8/10.
MercyMeEven If2020/08/09After prayerfully reading Ryan's comment, I changed my mind and removed my earlier criticism about MercyMe's vagueness.  It does not bear merit given the rest of the song.  This changed its score from 8/10 to 10/10.
Avril LavigneHead Above Water2020/08/01Chris Lamech mentioned that I left out Psalm 69 in my commentary.  I added it to Chorus.

I was also too harsh in my grading.  I adjusted my scores, raising this song's rating from 5.5/10 to 6.5/10.
CrowderAll My Hope2020/07/30A little bird (Neal Cruco) told me that Merriam-Webster dictionary updated their dictionary for the word “Prodigal” Therefore, I am forced to take back my critique of this word, raising its score to perfection!

SinachWay Maker2020/07/29In light of some prayer and discussion offline, I've come to the conclusion that these "all" statements, though technically incorrect, are slight objections.  Therefore, I significantly raised its score from 7/10 to 9/10 and added a recommendation to address my issues in a corporate setting.
Cageless BirdsAin't No Grave2020/07/27Jarod Dyess changed my mind about my commentary regarding the keys of death and hades.  Also, I've updated the review to reflect my current position on lyrics that appear me-centered, but are much like the Psalms in terms of testimony.  I've also found Biblical support for God as a weapon.  These combined updates drastically raise its score from  6/10 to 9/10.
SinachWay Maker2020/07/27Othniell is correct. It doesn't make sense to include universalism when the scope of Sinach's song is, in fact, not everyone.  I've removed all references to it in my review.  This does not alter my score.
N/A (Page)Upcoming Reviews and Song Submission Queue2020/07/25Added Elevation Worship polling that will run under the same rules as Hillsong. Also, updated step 7 in the review process to include this artist.
Kirk FranklinLove Theory2020/07/22Kelly has a point about "I don't wanna love nobody but You", that it ignores loving others.  I updated my commentary, lowering this score from 6.5/10 to 4.5/10.  I also accidentally erased the title "Closing Comments" and score for section 4 when I initially created this review.  I added it back.

Lauren DaigleYou Say2020/06/30Steve Barhydt convinced me that Daigle's line "You say I am strong when I think I am weak" was not self-righteous. Therefore, I gave section 2 a perfect 10, bumping up its overall rating from 7.5/10 to 8.5/10.
Melody and Keith GreenThere Is A Redeemer2020/06/28Steve Witwicki gave me a quick lesson in English, correcting me in my usage of the word "corporal" when I should have stated "corporate" in my closing arguments.
Sidewalk ProphetsYou Love Me Anyway2020/06/20Neal Cruco pointed out an error to my overall summary in section 2, that my critique applies to Stanza 1, not stanza 2.  Also, I added Neal's commentary on my criticism contained in Stanza 3.  Finally, I felt that perfect scores were unjustified in the other sections, slightly lowering its overall score from 9/10 to 8.5/10.

SinachWay Maker2020/06/08After examining Dan Dan's comments, I agree with part of his conclusion, that the scope of Sinach's "every" statements is not all mankind.  However, it still has universalism application given the high likelihood of unbelievers who will walk away unchanged.  Therefore, I did not update my score.
SinachWay Maker2020/06/03After some discussion in the comments from Gbenga and Tom penner, I updated section 1, paragraph 2.  I also forgot to list the other two attributes described in Chorus!
DC TalkJesus Freak2020/05/30Thanks to Jonathan Grandt, I updated my commentary regarding Verse 1's opening lines, slightly raising this song's score from 9/10 to 9.5/10.  I also fixed explanatory and grammatical errors throughout this review.

Lauren DaigleFirst2020/05/21The original review incorrectly stated that Lauren Daigle is seeing "You".  It now says seeking.
Cory AsburyReckless Love2020/05/16Upon prayerfully examining Neal Cruco's "angel" theory for the 99 sheep in contrast to Dan's comments, I agree with him and updated my commentary with a mix of earlier edits and fresh ideas, sharply increasing its score from 5/10 to 7/10.  I also fixed several spelling and grammatical errors.  Finally, I moved all the updates to the end of the review to align with other pages, retrofitting the dates by which I updated this page.
Hillsong UNITEDSo Will I (100 Billion X)2020/05/16In light of prayerfully considering Neal Cruco's analysis of the 99 as angelic beings in his commentary to Reckless Love and commentary from Gary, I took the following actions:

  • Restored my commentary on the song's end.

  • Added a second reference to the Parable of the Lost Sheep to the end of section 2.

  • Added commentary to address Outro's first line, "Like You would again a hundred billion times" in sections 1, 2, 4, and Conclusion.

  • Fixed several spelling/grammar errors.


These combined efforts decreased its score from 9.5/10 to 8.5/10.
Chris TomlinOur God2020/05/14The original introduction incorrectly stated that Tomlin ended the public eye in 1993.  He entered it that year.
CityAlightChrist Is Mine Forevermore2020/05/14Neal Cruco is correct about the context of Verse 2.  It is about overcoming tribulation, not old/new self.  I updated my commentary to reflect this revelation.
Francesca BattistelliHe Knows My Name2020/05/14After much prayer and thought from Neal Cruco's commentary, I've reversed my criticism regarding Battistelli famous in God's eyes. This propels its score from 6.5/10 to 9/10.
Lauren DaigleYou Say2020/05/13In reaction to bob polo's comments, I clarified my statements in sections 1 and 3 and adjusted scoring based on a less stringent reaction to lack of attributes/acts of God.  I also removed my commentary regarding theological depth/sparseness, restoring the original score back to 7.5/10.
Elevation WorshipThe Blessing (Feat. Cody Carnes & Kari Jobe)2020/05/11Added Psalm 103:17-18 as a reference for Bridge 1, thanks to Linda Carroll!
MatisyahuKing Without A Crown2020/05/11Thanks to Neal's commentary on why Jews and Christians don't necessarily worship the same God, my intent was to explain why I'm not applying a two-point penalty in section 2.  In hindsight, Matisyahu was clear as to which god he serves; therefore, no explanation is required.
Citipointe WorshipInto The Deep2020/05/04Commenter Nicholas, using Psalm 63, helped me see that it's OK for songs to focus on feelings rather than core truths about God.  Given that I already rated it 10/10 for Scripture, I removed this criticism and increased its score from 6.5/10 to 8/10.  I also added clarification on Bridge, line 3.
N/A (Page)Upcoming Reviews and Song Submission Queue2020/05/03In step 1 of the review process, I added “at least” before “two reviews”. This clarifies that I’ll minimally do two reviews per week. There may be opportunities (such as the current COVID-19 crisis) where I could do more.

  • Decreased penalty based on the word "Reckless", increasing its score from 7.5/10 to 9/10.

United PursuitNothing I Hold Onto2020/04/23To keep things consistent, I updated the band's name to "United Pursuit".
TobyMacI Just Need U.2020/04/22Inspired by Jimmy Wilson's words, I re-reviewed the song without a requirement to explain the Gospel.  I also broke section 2 by line as I have done in other reviews.  This drastically raised this song's score, from 4/10 to 9.5/10.   I also added the album title.
Hillsong WorshipWho You Say I Am2020/04/20Inspired to hear it again by commenter Brian, I no longer saw a self-focused song.  Instead, I saw as he did: God defines who we are, not us.  Therefore, I increased its score from 8.5/10 to 9/10.
Cody CarnesThe Cross Has the Final Word2020/04/19Commenter Jen helped me with my gender confusion, reminding me that Cody is Kari's husband and not her wife as I originally and erroneously stated.

Marie BarnettBreathe2020/03/30Neal's commentary caused me to rethink my review and ultimately, update section 1, section 4, and the conclusion.  I also changed my mind about the "Holy Spirit as my boyfriend" plea.  This bumped up its score from 7.5/10 to 8/10.

Hillsong WorshipCornerstone2020/02/26Neal pointed out that Cornerstone is "built" on the work of Edward Mote.  I added this credit to the introduction.
Elevation WorshipYours (Glory and Praise)2020/02/21The original article identified Hillsong as the author in section 3.  It now says "Elevation Worship".  Thank you Val for finding this error!
Hillsong WorshipNew Wine2020/02/21After a lengthy email discussion with Nathan, I've changed my view on the meaning of "new wine".  This alters my review score from 8/10 to 6/10.
Lauren DaigleTrust in You2020/02/21After a lengthy discussion with commenter Val, I added clarification to Chorus, line 3. This did not affect my rating.
SinachWay Maker2020/02/21Upon reviewing Val's commentary, I removed all references to physical healing and replaced them with univeralism thinking.  This did not affect my rating.
Charitie Lees SmithBefore the Throne of God Above2020/02/14Added more commentary to the song's end based on commentary by Robert.
Hillsong UNITEDNot Today2020/02/08Added paragraph separation in section 2 and updated the conclusion to include my recommendation for corporal worship.
Delirious?Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble?2020/02/07Corrected lyric in Verse 3, line 4.  Thank you again Sue!
Hillsong WorshipWho You Say I Am2020/02/07Added a summary to section 2 that was previously missing.  Also, to keep this review in line with others, I removed my commentary on its use.  This is a private matter left for worship leaders to decide and should not affect this song's message score.  This slightly increased the rating from 8/10 to 8.5/10.
Delirious?Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble?2020/02/05Added further commentary in Chorus to explain the purpose of singing and dancing.  Thank you Sue for asking about it!
John Mark McMillanDeath In His Grave2020/02/03Deleted a duplicate set of lines in Verse 1.  Thanks to commenter JM for pointing this out!
Big Daddy WeaveRedeemed2020/01/26Commenter Steve Barhydt has once again provided a compelling case for why the Chorus is Biblical, providing Hebrews 12 as his basis.  Upon further prayer and examination, I've accepted his arguments and updated the score from 7/10 to 9.5/10.
John Mark McmillanHow He Loves2020/01/26Removed interrogative comment in Pre-Chorus and added a Bible verse to Verse 2 that does not affect my rating.
Hillsong UNITEDAnother in the Fire2020/01/20Upon prayerfully reflecting on commenter Maggie's response, I agree with her and updated my review.  It received a small bump, from 7/10 to 7.5/10.
Hillsong UNITEDSo Will I (100 Billion X)2020/01/18This review became inconsistent upon updating my review of Reckless Love based on my rejection of the Parable of the Lost Sheep in connection with God. I reflected that change here also. I've slightly lowered the score from 10/10 to 9.5/10. Thank you Daniel Namkung for pointing this out!
HozierTake Me to Church2020/01/18Upon reflecting on commenter Venus' considerations, I modified this review to include correct points that Hozier makes.  I've increased the score from 0.5/10 to 2/10.
N/A (Poll)February 2020 Poll II – Vote for Future Reviews2020/01/17User Neal Cruco informed me that I chose the wrong selection of songs for this poll. He is correct! Those who voted early must vote again on this poll. I kept your votes for a future poll.
Depeche ModeHigher Love2019/12/05Upon commenter Bill Tavis' challenge and another closer examination, I admit that I was wrong about my interpretation of infinity.  It is not the "infinity" that guides Depeche Mode, but a "higher love", altering the entire review and significantly raising my score from a big fat 0/10 to 5/10.
Meredith AndrewsOpen Up the Heavens2019/11/27Commenter Steve Barhydt is correct: There is a double-meaning throughout these lyrics that include authentic worship here and now.  I incorporated his thoughts throughout this review.
Meredith AndrewsOpen Up the Heavens2019/11/24Upon Sue's challenge, I found that Vertical Church Band's version contains a Verse/Chorus/Bridge format.  I incorporated it into this review.
Big Daddy WeaveRedeemed2019/11/20Commenter Janet Giles raised a question about line 3 within the Chorus that, upon prayer and reflection, I cannot accept as Biblical.  I changed the score from 9/10 to 7/10.
Delirious?Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble?2019/11/12As a result of my conversation with BuzzBuzzMeow, I updated my commentary on Verse 3.  I did not alter the score.

Robin MarkDays of Elijah2019/11/12As part of the post-review announcement, I updated this review to align with my changed mind on figurative usage of historical events.  Thanks to commenter Kevin for finding a straggler!  Having said that, my commentary remains largely unchanged given that I direct my criticism towards the inaccurate Scriptural usage rather than using historical events figuratively, except Verse 2, lines 1 and 2.  I changed my commentary on that section, slightly bumping up my score from 4.5/10 to 5/10
Charitie Lees SmithBefore the Throne of God Above2019/11/10Thanks to commenters James and Mitchell Hunt for their contribution!  I added James' Scripture regarding God's engraved hands and clarification on repetition.
Sarah ReevesRight Where You Want Me2019/11/02Commenter praiser gave correct verses about prayer used as an enemy; however, reexamination of this line uncovered another error.  These combined updates did not alter the overall score.
Vertical WorshipSpirit of the Living God2019/10/27Steve Barhydt challenged my update since Gilbert commented.  I examined the context of the entire song and the Scriptures he brings to his commentary.  I had forgotten my initial comment that the entire song is about the Holy Spirit.  Therefore, I restored the score to its former 8.5/10.
Rend CollectiveBoldly I Approach (The Art Of Celebration)2019/10/24Commenter Sarah Fisher got me thinking about angelic fear as deep reverence and respect for God.  Upon closer examination, I agreed with her, causing me to remove my criticism of Verse 1 line 2 and raising the overall score from 7/10 to 9/10.
N/A (Page)Song Review Index (Christmas Edition)2019/10/23Received a recommendation from Timothy King to include the review date. I added it as the third column.

Martin J. NystromAs the Deer2019/10/17This song originally scored 9.5/10.  My correspondence with commenter Nicholas Kleszczewski changed my mind, resulting in a re-evaluation, lowing its score to 8/10.
Bethel MusicNo Longer Slaves2019/10/15As part of my conversation with others on my review on Cindy Walker's Child of the King, I re-examined this song and my own comments wish a fresh perspective.  In this review, I only brought it up in section 4.  I replaced it with criticism regarding the lack of gospel.  While the math did not change the score much, I realized that I misscored (mis-scored?  miscored?  miss-scored?) it after my first update.  It should have been 7/10.
Lauren DaigleYou Say2019/10/15After reading Jeff's comment, I updated my commentary on the line "You say I am strong when I think I am weak", altering my perception of this phrase and my score from 7.5/10 to 6.5/10.
Hillsong WorshipNew Wine2019/10/14Thanks to the challenge of commenter Binny, I realized that I did not provide Scriptural support for my interpretation of "new wine" and the vessel therein.  I added that to section 2, Verse 1.
Rita SpringerDefender2019/10/11After a brief conversation with commenter Briana Santillana, she made a compelling case for the possibility of multiple ways to salvation within the Chorus.  I summarized it in section 1 and took away a point; However, due to rounding, the overall score remains the same. I also changed the "we/our" pronouns to Springer, since her lyrics contain "I/me".
Vertical WorshipSpirit of the Living God2019/10/07Commenter Gilbert Johnson challenged me on my Scripture references for Jesus falling.  I realized that it was not referring to His death, but his physical falling three times, which is not supported in Scripture.  I altered its score, slightly lowering it from 8.5/10 to 8/10.
Hillsong UNITEDAnother in the Fire2019/09/30Zach's comment added a Scriptural reference to "As the prison walls cave in", from Paul and Silas' time in prison together.
Elevation WorshipFaithful2019/09/18Commenter pathosbill made a compelling case for God's faithfulness using 2 Timothy 2:13.  I came down hard on Elevation Worship because I believed Verse 1 to be its main pillar to support the rest of the song.  This one verse adds another pillar, changing my entire outlook on this review.  This drastically increases its score from 3.5/10 to 7/10.
Andy ParkIn The Secret2019/09/16Paul's comments reminded me of the "two point penalty" policy I apply to section 2 when the lyrics' pronouns do not clearly and implicitly point to God.  After applying it, the score jumped significantly from 0.5/10 to 4/10.
N/A (Page)Song Review Index (Christmas Edition)2019/09/11Restructured the table to remove selection by letter, paving the way for column sorting. Huge thanks to Jeff Paetkau for his suggestion and helpful advice!

Cory AsburyReckless Love2019/08/25I was too harsh on the scoring using Dan's analysis, focusing on the errors and not giving enough credit for what Ausbury does right.  Therefore, I increased the overall score from 2.5/10 to 5/10.
Elevation WorshipHallelujah Here Below2019/08/21Commenter pathosbill provided Psalm 22:3 to Bibically support the phrase "But You abide in the song we sing" that I previously stated did not contain Scriptral evidence.  Therefore, I slightly altered the score from 6.5/10 to 7/10.
Cory AsburyReckless Love2019/08/13Commenter Dan reminded me that the shepherd in Luke 15 are the Pharisees, not our Heavenly Father nor Jesus.  Given that the verses and Bridge depend on a correct interpretation of the Chorus, the entire lyrics unraveled, resulting in a sharply lowered overall score from 7.5/10 to 2.5/10.
Lauren DaigleRescue2019/08/01Commenter B Green makes an excellent point about the ambiguity of rescue.  I added the essence of their argument throughout this review, causing a sharp decline, from 6/10 to 4/10.
Rita SpringerDefender2019/07/28Commenter Ken Ferguson caused me to revaluate this review with his commentary.  I updated the first section and bumped up its score, raising its total rating from 5.5/10 to 6/10.
Lauren DaigleRescue2019/07/20Commenter Kristy Barber makes a valid argument for one's innocence stolen by nefarious individuals, causing me to rework this review.  I also noticed that I scored section 4 too low, changing the overall score from 5/10 to 6/10.
Hillsong UNITEDAnother in the Fire2019/07/07I was mistaken on my analysis of the last few lines of the Bridge.  Thanks to commenter Laura, section 2 received a slight boost, raising the overall score from 6.5/10 to 7/10.
Hillsong WorshipWho You Say I Am2019/07/04Thanks to an email from Alex, to keep this review in line with other reviews, I lowered the score for section four given the centrality of self-described in other sections of this review.  This brings the score down from 9/10 to 8/10.
Hillsong Young & FreeWake2019/07/03Thanks to Jonathan Dixon for pointing out the obvious "we" pronoun from the perspective of the singer, I updated the review.  However, the severe lack of clarity makes it difficult to justify a higher rating.
N/A (Page)Criteria for Evaluating Christian Music2019/06/01Due to several comments about section 4 in my reviews, I expounded on my review process for this section.  I also added additional text at the end to signify that all 4 sections receive a whole number rating ranging from 0 to 10.
Jesus CultureYou Won't Relent2019/05/29In light of this post, I dramatically altered this review, shifting the overall score from 5.5/10 to 8.5/10.
Bethel MusicNo Longer Slaves2019/05/22Commenter JohnP found a Scripture verse to support the first Verse, forcing me to update and re-score section 2 and bumping up the overall score from 6/10 to 6.5/10.
Kari JobeForever2019/05/15Commenter Andrew made an excellent point about Jesus' war on death in the grave, that it might not have Biblical support.  I prayed and thought about it and agreed with him.  Therefore, I downgraded all the sections, causing me to rescore the entire review sharply, from 9.5/10 to 7/10.
N/A (Page)Criteria for Evaluating Christian Music2019/05/15Expanded on section 3 to explain trends vs. individual unbelievers in terms of my evaluation.
Casting CrownsIf We Are The Body2019/05/10Commentor Timothy King pointed out an error within the lyrics.  I copied them from the Genius website, which contains a mistaken apostrophe that perhaps attempts to correct Casting Crowns' grammar.  Timothy is correct in that "girl's" should be "girls"; however, Casting Crowns still has incorrect grammar.  It should say "girls'."  The girls possess their teasing laughter.

Regardless, Timothy offered a correct analysis based on this word change, causing me to update my review for section 2 and changing the overall score from 8.5/10 to 9.5/10.
Cory AsburyReckless Love2019/05/10To bring this review in line with my other work, I slightly downgraded section 4, slightly lowering the overall score from 8/10 to 7.5/10.
Vertical WorshipSpirit of the Living God2019/04/28Thanks to commenter Elaine Goedde for pointing out that I did not address "when you fall" at the end of the bridge.  I updated my commentary for this entire part in light of this context, which in my mind, is not about every knee bowing, but rather a response to Christ's sacrifice.
Phil WickhamLiving Hope2019/04/20Thanks to commenter Mal Green who pointed out the phrase "life after God" in my review. I corrected it to "life after receiving God".
Hillsong WorshipO Praise The Name (AnĂĄstasis)2019/04/18My original review contained a comment about a slight historical inaccuracy.  Thanks to a commenter known simply as "T", I tried to find it and alas, I could not find it.  Therefore, I bumped up the score, resulting in a shift from 9.5/10 to a perfect score!
TobyMacI Just Need U.2019/04/18Fixed grammatical and tense errors in section 3 thanks to commenter Sean Boen.
MercyMeEven If2019/04/16Changed commentary in Chorus 1 of section 2 based on Jenny's comments (below), slightly altering its score.
CimorelliMy God is Here2019/04/12I penalized the message too harshly due to my own personal taste.  Therefore, I added a point, increasing the overall score from 7.5/10 to 8/10.
Mosaic MSCTremble2019/04/12After much prayer and discussion with other Christ-followers, I've changed my mind about my criticism regarding figurativizing historical events.  Paul Himself did this on numerous occasions.  Circumcision of the heart is a prominent example.  Therefore, I changed the overall score from 7.5/10 to 9.5/10.
Rend CollectiveRescuer (Good News)2019/04/12It is not fair for me to criticize this song for a lack of cost when I did not penalize other songs for not including it.  Therefore, I altered the overall score from 7.5/10 to 8/10.
N/A (Page)Criteria for Evaluating Christian Music2019/03/27Added explicit statement at the end of the page to separate lyrical critique from artist theology (thank you commenter Noelle).  I also changed the pronoun "we" to "I" given that I am the sole owner and writer for this website, except where I include you, my audience.
N/A (Poll)April Poll – Vote for Future Reviews2019/03/15Thanks to wonder291 on Reddit for pointing out that the poll wasn't working.  This is a repost with an extended close date of March 21st.  Something is wrong with the plugin, so I'll try a few other ones as I have time.  In the meantime, if you still want to vote, comment on this post with your top 3 picks.  I'll update the totals manually.
UpperroomSurrounded (Fight My Battles)2019/03/14Upon re-examination, I realized that I was too harsh on UPPERROOM for their endless use of repetition.  While I am personally against such use, that is no reason to give it an overall 3/10 rating, especially since its Biblical score was high.  Thank you Beeb294 on Reddit for pointing this out!
N/A (Page)Criteria for Evaluating Christian Music2019/03/08Added language in section 2 regarding the usage of a 2 point penalty for authorial intent to invoke pronouns in the place of God without clear communication.
Zach WilliamsOld Church Choir2019/03/06I was unclear as to why I gave the message 1/10.  I added additional rationale for the low rating.
Elevation WorshipDo It Again2019/02/27This song received an original score of 6.5/10. After reading Michael's commentary (see below), I decided to re-evaluate this song and increased its score to 8/10.
N/A (Page)Criteria for Evaluating Christian Music2019/02/07Though excessive repetition is part of my reviews, I never explicitly stated it here.  I also clarified the message section regarding grading Gospel-centric songs (thank you commenter Sage).
Icons of IndustryDown from the Mountain (Feat. Erik LeCar)2019/01/31I originally gave this song a 9/10; However, upon re-reading the third stanza, I discovered that the end part is disconnected from God's command, nullifying my initial criticism.  This raised the song's score from 9/10 to 9.5/10.
Cory AsburyReckless Love2018/06/18This review originally had a review score of 9/10.  I altered it based on much prayer after receiving feedback in the comments.
N/A (Page)Criteria for Evaluating Christian Music2018/04/11Scores now include a weighted distribution.  All previous posts will be readjusted under this new system as time allows.
NFLet You Down2018/01/27Originally, I gave this a score of 0/10 and insisted to stay away from this song.  Thanks to the comments of NumbersWithFriends (reddit) and one other reddit user, I decided to slightly change my review.
