Does anybody listen to these just for fun instead of the usual spiritual edification thing or because you have to because you are in church?
Some of my favorites are Refiner's Fire and Thy Word.

Not really, but at times they do stick in my head , things like abide with me etc. Only because I have been thinking of friends or family who have passed and that was sung then.

tbh I think the devil has the best tunes, 14 years of Church Going/ Sunday school is more than enough for me, I could never listen to them for pleasure.

I love hymns - both the old fashioned ones and even some of the modern hands in the air Jesus ones. favourites include - Dear Lord and Father of Mankind (Divine Comedy do a brilliant version of this), Amazing Grace, Be Thou My Vision, my Song is Love Unknown, Shine Jesus Shine. All about the emotion and the journey. Havent heard the ones in the OP. Must check them out!

To be politically correct, do we also have some Hers as well?

I think carols tend to be better than hymns. But hymns really sound best from Welsh choirs.

So there we have the balance. It's just that the hers are more restrictive and are confined to carols.

Hymns is a great voteless word too.
Carols meh - like mariah Carey and the Pogues are played to death
