Oh, thank goodness. If I had to sit through another version of "Our God is an Awesome God," arranged for gutiar and bongos, I'd go mad. Hippie music doesnot belong in Mass.

This is the honest truth: Hubby and I went to Mass in a MAGNIFICENTLY restored turn-of-the-century Gothic-style church in southern MN a few years ago. The "music ministry" (so help me, I couldn't make this stuff up) consisted of six assorted guitars and a set of electronic bongos.

The Holy Father could simply ban all 20th century compositions by Jesuits and he'd likely have the battle considerably more than half won.

Hopefully, starting with the mind numbingly insipid "Like a shepherd".

Many songs are fine for the campfire but give me 'Ave Verum Corpus' at Mass any day.
