Ponder Anew
This has become an anthem of the contemporary worship camp over the past couple of years. Theologically, it’s introspective and self-referential. Other than that, there’s nothing really wrong with it, other than a morsel of trinitarian nebulousness in the refrain. The whole thing seems to live in this self-indulgent purgatory, without any concrete statement of faith, without any trace of the Christian story, beginning and ending in these dream-like sequences of possible drowning. And it’s simply not a congregational song. If you MUST sing it, have it be done as a prayer by a soloist.
