GUEST,Charles Biada Godless 'hymns' or Atheism Church Music? (84* d) RE: Godless 'hymns' or Atheism Church Music? 10 Apr 11


110 Mount Vernon in the Sacred Harp is rather areligious for a hymn:

What solemn sound the ear invades,
What wraps the land in sorrow's shade?
From heav'n the awful mandate flies,
The father of his country dies.
Where shall our nation turn its eye,
What help remains beneath the sky?
Our friend, protector, strength and trust,
Lies low and mould'ring in the dust.

So is 67 Columbus, if you ignore the last verse.

And of course there is always Leon Rosselson's magnificent "Stand Up For Judas."
