One whiff of Abide with me, Crimmond, The Old Rugged Cross, How Great Thou Art, or The Day Thou Gavest, Lord; at my requiem and I won't be going to it. This'll be doubly so if anyone reads out that dreadful "Footprints" thing, or the one about "I am the wind, the rain, the sunshine blah-de-blah-blah...

Lauda Jerusalem at the Procession of Palms
For the past few years we've used Lauda Jerusalem - psalm 147 - (music by Th. Deckers) as a Processional Song for the Solemn Entrance on Palm Sunday. It's simple, lends itself to unaccompanied singing, easily picked up, alto, tenor and bass lines are easily memorised / fabricated !!! I've never seen...

Our congergation sing well. I threaten them that if they don't sing this week's service music then next week I'll select a load of politically correct, runny, late 20th century rubbish that's devoid of any substance and which cautiously avoids any reference to the holy catholic faith for which our f...

Humankind
I played the organ for the C of E's evensong service last Sunday. They use the word humankind quite a bit in prayers, hymns and dubious scripture translations. Is this a way of saying mankind that's employed by those who do not understand how the English language works?

Oh dear!
Thumbing through 'Laudate' I notice that 'God of mercy and compassion' has been gutted and corrupted almost beyond recognition, and 'Sweet Heard of Jesus' is completely missing. On the other hand the dreadful 'Freely freely' is in there, as is 'Colours of Day' and much other 70's style crud. Worryin...
