I searched the archives and found some earlier references, but nothing concentrated. I'd throw this open for any UU's or fellow travelers to make suggestions, criticisms, rants, or objections regarding the hymnal now promulgated by the UUA or any future effort. To kick it off, I'd like to point out how much I hate "Spirit of Life" because A. It's just a weepy dirge, and B. I hate having people presume I'd like it just because I'm UU. I'd also point out that they changed the words in "Light One Candle" from "We have come this far, always believing that justice..." to "Have we come this far..." which changes the whole meaning. Okay. Got that off my chest. Have at it.
