Lutheran Hit Parade
The fat red Service Book and Hymnal used by the Lutheran Church in America includes ten hymns with words or music by Martin Luther--and not one of them is among the top ten favorites of Lutherans today. His best-known work, A Mighty Fortress Is Our God, ranks 15th on the list of the Lutherans' most frequently sung hymns, well behind a host of hymns by 18th and 19th century Protestants. According to a survey in The Lutheran Magazine, the hymns at the top of the list are Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty; Beautiful Savior; My Faith Looks Up to Thee; Come, Thou Almighty King; and Give to Our God Immortal Praise.
