American Idol Features “Shout To The Lord” But Censors Name of Jesus
April 11, 2008
The prospect that America’s most-watch television program would feature a popular Christian worship song to close its fundraising special last night generated a buzz on the Internet, but some now are crying foul after the lyrics were altered to eliminate the word “Jesus.”
In the grand finale of “American Idol Gives Back,” eight “Idol” finalists performed “Shout to the Lord,” the song by Darlene Zschech of Australia’s Hillsong Church that has been sung in thousands of congregations around the world.
Zschech’s lyrics open with “My Jesus, My Savior, Lord there is none like You, All of my days, I want to praise, The wonders of Your mighty love.”
Instead of “My Jesus,” however, viewers last night heard the “American Idol” stars begin the song with “My shepherd,” as seen in a clip posted on YouTube.
