This offers an opportunity for a little discussion here:<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Are there any hymns not in our current hymnbook that you would like to see included? \u00a0(\u201cAmazing Grace\u201d would be one of my nominations. \u00a0\u201cCome, Thou Fount of Every Blessing\u201d would be another.)<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Are there any hymns currently in the hymnbook that you don\u2019t like\u00a0and might like to see removed? \u00a0(There are several that I would banish.)<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
I have no problem whatever with \u201cPraise to the Man.\u201d \u00a0I know that it bothers some, but I like both the melody and the sentiment.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
And I love \u201cIf You Could Hie to Kolob,\u201d though I admit that that verse about there being \u201cno end to race\u201d does grate a bit on contemporary sensibilities. \u00a0(It\u2019s not talking about \u201crace\u201d in the sense of ethnicity, but about the human<\/em> \u201crace.\u201d \u00a0Still . . . )<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Anyway, what do you<\/em> think?<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
