Shout to the Lord

Many of you watched Idol gives back a few nights ago and saw the Top 8 sing the song "Shout to the Lord." (If you missed it, just check out the post below this one and you can see the video.) But it seems the song wasn't without controversy. The changed the first line of the song from "My Jesus, My Savior" to "My Shepherd, My Savior." And I've heard from several people and seen several places on the internet where people couldn't believe they took the name of Jesus out of the song. I have to admit that I was so in shock that they were even singing the song that the change in lyrics didn't really bother me. I just couldn't believe they were singing a worship song! I was thinking to myself that millions of people were watching this and hopefully were going to be impacted in some way by the song.

So it seems that they did the song again last night at the elimination show and guess what? The first line was unchanged. So for everyone out there that was upset, they put the name of Jesus back in the song. So check out the performance here:
