Tough guys and nature hymns

I recently learned that I'm not (quite) a real man. So I was heartened when the Daily Mail informed me that hymns can be macho. I love hymns!

Unfortunately, the actual list of macho hymns is a mix of hymns I don't like and hymns that don't strike me as particularly macho. I love "How Great Thou Art," but really? If memory serves:
When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze
When I look out on lofty mountains' grandeur
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees
Makes me want to watch some wrestling or whatever!

    So, if I like hymns, and usually order bourbon or a draft beer if I can, does that mean I'm partially a real man, too?

    I am looking at e-vite designs for my birthday party, and decided to look at "birthday for him" for fun. Apparently real men also like sports cars, women in tight clothes, rock and roll, pirates and gambling images. Oh, and my favorite, birthday candles in a steak.
