There is a movement within Covenant Theology to drop singing in corporate worship all "uninspired" songs and to sing only the Psalms. They offer some long arguments to support their position and I would agree that there are many hymns in our hymn books that have questionable theology. http://www.psalms4u.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=CCP&Category_Code=DW Your mentioning of the KJOnly group is an interesting statement.
