Hypocritical Singing

I found this artical in an old newsletter and it's sadly true.

We sing "Sweet Hour of Prayer" and content ourselves with ten or fifteen minutes a day (if that much).
We sing "Onward Christian Soldiers" and wait to be drafted into service.
We sing "Oh For A Thousand Tongues" and don't use the one we have (or not in the right way).
We sing "Blest Be The Ties That Bind" and let the least little offense sever it.
We sing "Serve the Lord with Gladness" and gripe about everything we have to do.
We sing "We're Marching to Zion" and fail to march to Sunday School.
We sing "I Love to Tell the Story" and never mention it all year.
We sing "Cast Thy Burden On The Lord" and worry ourselves into nervous breakdowns.
We sing "The Whole Wide World for Jesus" and never invite our next door neighbor to church.
We sing "Throw out the Lifeline" and content ourselves by throwing out a fishing line.
