Hymns A minister decided to do something a little different one Sunday morning. He said, "Today, in church, I am going to say a single word and you are going to help me preach." "Whatever single word I say, I want you to sing whatever hymn that comes  to your mind.  The pastor shouted out, "Cross." Immediately the congregation started  singing in unison, "The Old Rugged Cross." The pastor hollered out "Grace." The congregation began to sing "Amazing  Grace, how sweet the sound." The pastor said "Power." The congregation sang "There is Power in the  Blood." The Pastor said "Sex." The congregation fell in total silence. Everyone  was in shock. They all nervously began to look around at each other afraid to say anything. Then all of a sudden, way from in the back of the church, a little old 87 year old grandmother stood up and began to sing "Precious Memories."
