>> Anglicans are turning to Catholicism in droves.

We sure are, but, we can keep our neat hymns, right? Please? :o)

You may keep all, or practically all, of your nice hymns. And please teach our choir directors to sing decent music, preferably including a boys' choir singing soprano descant parts ... instead of this Peter, Paul, and Mary (no, not the Biblical characters) stuff they keep trying to foist off on us. :-0

And welcome aboard, and Merry Christmas!

Yes, especially “Autumn”, the actual last hymn sung on board the sinking Titanic.

“Jerusalem” is also a favorite. Popular among the lads who recaptured Falklands in 1982.
