They sing at the Catholic Parish you attend?!!

LOL. I couldn't believe that we'd be singing Charles Wesley hymns. In most cases, the words are changed slightly (there seems to be an aversion to thees and thous - except during the Pater Noster). And not a guitar in sight. It's heavenly. In the truest sense of the word.

I was attending the TLM but the Archbishop is not a fan so the early one disappeared when they suppressed the Parish.

Going back to the one verse Dan Schutte has been the hardest part.

And in my opinion John Wesley is better than Charles, though Charles does have some good stuff.

I always say the best thing to come out of V2 was the willingness to steal good hymns from other Christians....though the Catholic writing has suffered.
