Matt Redman - Face down Album - Breathing the breath.

The lyrics in the breakdown clearly sound like 'Breeding the Rat that you gave us to Breed, to worship you'

seriously!

OK classic. I'll ruin this for you forever. Vineyard song 'Child of God' from Hungry album:

Jesus you're all I need
My soul sufficiency.......
Your arms enfold me, till I am only
A child of God

is really:

Jesus you're all I need
My soul's a fish in the sea
Your arms enfold me, till I am only
A child of cod

Told you.

Hmm, Everlasting God can sound similar when sung with a cold...

"You are the everlasting Cod..." :)

Hillsongs united Live - united we stand - Revolution

watch out for the line 'Sow your eyes together' just before the 1st Chorus.

tsk tsk.. I mean really. What are they teaching us with lines like that?

I think it's the album "I will sing of you love forever" Better is one day in your coats (Courts is the correct word)

This is a great topic!!!!

My most recent one is the Lex Buckley song "Through the valley". The start of the first two lines of verse 2 read:

Lord I know You are faithful
Lord I know You are good and true

...but before I knew the actual words I could have sworn she was singing:

No longer You are faithful
No longer You are good and true

(sorry Lex :-) )

...and now I find it really hard to hear anything else :-)

I love You Lord

Not sure who wrote it, but the version I have is by Jason Morant. Its a fab song but....

The part where it goes "let it be a sweet sweet sound in your ear" ... someone once pointed it out that when sung it sounds slightly like "in your rear". Everytime I hear it or sing it now, I can't help but think of it... its horrible!

OK my wife has just reminded me of another that we both got wrong!

It's a song by Chris Rice called 'Go light your world'...and the line at the end of the chorus that should be:

Take your candle and go light your world

really, really, really sounds like:

Take your candle go like a whirl

It's true!

I Will Offer Up My Life.....

A couple of years ago we had just learnt this song in our praise group, and one of the first times we sang it in church, don't ask me why.... but I sang the line

"opened up the gates of hell and have beckoned me in..."

rather than the word '"heav'n"....... needless to say I was VERY mortified and felt very unchristian at that point!!!!!

My minister was telling our worship team a story a while back of a worship leader friend of his who got very into a time of worship, and at the end of the song 'Let Everything that has breath' shouted...

"Let everything that has breasts praise the Lord"

We were in hysterics, and I now find that song incredibly hard to sing...
