Noel's angel Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 [quote name='cappie' post='1136042' date='Dec 6 2006, 04:31 AM'] Traditional hymns were once contemporary. [/quote] I also agree that it depends on the hymn. Being contermporary doesn't automatically make a hymn worthless. If its theologically correct and doesn't sound like a pop/rock song, its perfectly fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suuran Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I actually really like some David Haas..."You Are Mine" brings tears to my eyes every time. I'm open to the idea that they're better outside Mass, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resurrexi Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I think new hymns would be good if they used traditional pre-written lyrics and sounded like more traditional hymns rather than the normal modern carp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
