Thread Name: What makes a good hymn?
Subject: RE: What makes a good hymn?
Sang Hail Holy Queen? Never heard it sung. We had to learn it aged 6 or so... apart from the Mother of Murphy bit, when it got to "To thee do we send up our size", I just KNEW that was a bit like Mum's mail order catalogue, and we were just reserving an appropriate sized white gown in case we died young (which of course we were going to do every night).
