; Religious Worh



The recent attack on the vulyarity Of
certain revival hymns, which We're not
specified, but which were referred to
as silly and sentimental and as poverty
stricken in music as they We're in
words. brings up Al old question which
has bothered all denominations from
time immenorial,'' to use a good old
phrase. but such is the case. There is
no question about it that the priests of
Bel OF Marduk, in Babylonia, 5000
years &. G. objected to the intrusion Of
the old rituals. and the Egyptians. UNI
der 1tameses MI. no doubt also had
qualms on this subject, us did the
Greeks and the Romans. as we'll as the
Israelites. since @rescensions of hymns
and liturgies is one of the oldest known
pastimes of human beings, being only
exceeded in hoary antiquity by the
writing of hymns themselves. since
hymns represent the oldest efforts at
literature running back to the very
horizons Of history.
OF course we know that the young
men Of the prehistoric periods in the
%spTingtime indited canticles to their
mistresscs' eyebrows" since we have
the prose records of love letters in
cuneiform. But the love songs were
not carved on rock and temple wall
and We're not considered important or
sacred enough in the earliest periods
to be handed down according to strict
traditions, and hence they We're lost,
while the hymns remain. Consequent
ly the various clergymer who have
been objecting to current hymnodies
OF an ultra popular revival character
have back OF them the approval Of
centuries in their efforts to keep the
text of hymns free from current trash
and the neeting literary and musical
emotions of the moment.
AS to the words, all denominations
are agreed that just as "Annie Room
ney," Sweet Marie and THE Girl Of
My Heart" have no permanent place
in song literature, so the occasional re-
Vival hymn. with its swing and slang,
has no place in permanent hymnodies.
Very few of them break in. it is true,
so far as the regular church hymnals
go. their chief ingress being through
the nondescript publications of the
Sunday school. since. for the most
part. hymns that have stood the test
of ge; are still the criterion. But
even this Sunday school lenity is OBJ
j~ectionable. for surely when all the
little sunshine" hymns have faded
away those who are in the church and
out of it will turn for consolation and
eXaltation to Bernard of Clugny's IA
hymn on the Joys of the New
Jernsalem.' the type Of ''hymns of
heavenly inconsistencies"
