Okay, since I'm into liturgical music I might have a new thing where I talk about some "hymns" and songs used in the typical parish. This time, "We Remember" by the notorious Marty Haugen.
The odd number verses are alright. The even number verses, on the other hand, leave a lot to be desired. 9.75 of the 12 measures... might be heresy in vs. 2. I'm not all that concerned about vs. 4.
2. Now we recreate your love[Oh?], we bring the bread and wine[okay...] to share a meal[If it were just a meal why would anyone be compelled by the belief?]. Sign[do I need to say that it's more than that] of grace and mercy, the presence of the Lord[hey, something true].
Any way, it's a terrible song. I hope that I don't do this after every O.F. Mass that I go to. But, who knows?
