Yes. The Hip and Aware ECUSA has redacted the Third Stanza in some cases. In others, they have changed "die to make men free" to "live to make men free", which is rather metrosexual of them, don't you think?

Sheesh, some day I'm going to make the decision to become a Roman Catholic and I will never look back. It all started back in the Seventies (...of course....).

After all, you wouldn't just want to go out and die for something higher than yourself, would you?

Be Seeing You,

Chris

This service looks like it's from the "Traditional" language burial rite from the Book of Common Prayer.

You think that's bad, I had an ECUSA minister a few years ago take the "wretch" out of Amazing Grace.
