I, too, would like to see newer compositions.<BR/><BR/>Fortunately, my parish does not use Glory and Praise. We have licensing arrangements which allows us to have a broader range of music. We print up mass sheets each week which collect from several sources. To use just one hymnal is pretty boring.RAGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928990342754680095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-36804608875941236702007-07-30T18:56:00.000-05:002007-07-30T18:56:00.000-05:00rag, Why can't I prefer one sort of music over ano...rag, <BR/>Why can't I prefer one sort of music over another? I grew up on Glory and Praise and I think it's time is over. It isn't contemporary, it's old-fashioned. I am sick of hearing it and would prefer silence or timeless music rather than "Hear I am Lord" or "Taste and See". Let the Church progress out of the 70's!xxxxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08568937298222307017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-1328875026873771492007-07-30T09:36:00.000-05:002007-07-30T09:36:00.000-05:00rag, it is perfectly legitimate for well-informed ...rag, it is perfectly legitimate for well-informed individuals to make "judgments" on music for the Church, just as it is perfectly legitimate to judge actions of (say) criminals.<BR/><BR/>I hope you are not disputing that contention, rag--or your time as an LEO was completely wasted.Dad29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08554276286736923821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-89971679088377736092007-07-30T09:08:00.000-05:002007-07-30T09:08:00.000-05:00(sigh) Maybe y'all should start a St. Judge Right-...(sigh) Maybe y'all should start a St. Judge Right-Wing Catholic Church of the Hopeless Good Old Plastic Jesus.RAGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928990342754680095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-26405606432687400102007-07-29T22:39:00.000-05:002007-07-29T22:39:00.000-05:00Mayhaps not OCP, but if you look at the list of hy...Mayhaps not OCP, but if you look at the list of hymns, not only will you see <I>O Salutaris Hostia</I>, but you'll find <I>On Eagles Wings as well</I>.

And he's free to write his own hymnal.<BR/><BR/>I will agree, however, that many of the songs in Glory and Praise are a bit simplistic. There's often better contemporary works out there but not in one hymnal.RAGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928990342754680095noreply@blogger.com
