Geez, guys - work on your hymnal and we’ll talk about it.
3 or 4 good ones just ain’t enough for us who grew up in the tradition of actually opening our mouths and singing in church.
The Protestant Reformation produced much more than a bunch of squabbling denominations that stood on their heads to create ways of telling the goats from the sheep.(-:
And, on a serious note, pick up a copy of “When Christians Were Jews (That is, Now)” by Wayne-Daniel Berard.
Hey, “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” is now in the Catholic music issue (or was at my wedding 10 years ago).
The hymnal is being worked on, thanks to my local Bishop. The latest Readings section has only traditional hymns in it.
But you didn’t know that did you? Look for even more improvements when the music issue (hymnal) comes out at the beginning of Advent for the new liturgical year, and thank Archbishop Sample!
