Yes, I noticed that too. Some are bald, and some have beards, but that was just the women.

Ha see now we get to the core..this is a thread to bash Christians.
Of course it is.
There are no christians in that idiot video.
They're money grubbers. They're the opposite of real Christians. Like you.
What does that have to do with the tradition of patriotic hymns, imbecile?There is a nasty ,narrow streak to American fundamentalist religion. It seems to be more about hating than loving.
Jesus said love thy neighbour - there were no footnotes to that.

Dumbfuck progressives. You can't pound knowledge into them. I don't know what we're going to do them. Feed them to hogs, maybe.
I think by far this is the best song about a president to ever exist, ever.
Another great hymn:religion is about god.....not America. I go to church to worship god. Not once had America ever been mentioned in a sermon.
"The song links the judgment of the wicked at the end of the age (Old Testament, Isaiah 63; New Testament, Rev. 19) with the American Civil War. "
"The "Glory, Hallelujah" tune was a folk hymn developed in the oral hymn tradition of camp meetings in the southern United States and first documented in the early 1800s. In the first known version, "Canaan's Happy Shore", the text includes the verse "Oh! Brothers will you meet me (3×)/On Canaan's happy shore?"[1]and chorus "There we'll shout and give him glory (3×)/For glory is his own";[2] this developed into the familiar "Glory, glory, hallelujah" chorus by the 1850s. The tune and variants of these words spread across both the southern and northern United States.[3]"
"As the "John Brown's Body" song[edit]
"At a flag-raising ceremony at Fort Warren, near Boston, Massachusetts on Sunday May 12, 1861, the John Brown song, using the well known "Oh! Brothers" tune and the "Glory, Hallelujah" chorus, was publicly played "perhaps for the first time." The American Civil War had begun the previous month."
"I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel:
"As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal";
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel,
Since God is marching on.
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Since God is marching on.
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! Be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
