Publisher's Synopsis
'Awake, and breathe the air Of the celestial clime: Awake to love which knows no change, Thou who has done with time' Who would write such lovely words? Wesley? Havergal? Sankey? Nope - it's from the Spiritualists National Union hymn book! We need to be aware of what we are singing, and where, if possible, the words came from. It is so easy to get caught up in the heat of the moment and sing with gusto songs that perhaps have no spiritual basis whatsoever. This book thankfully does not have any more offerings from such dubious hymn books, but I do include some songs where I may question what the words mean. Shouldn't all of us be doing that? I include hymns/carols/choruses about three aspects of the life of Jesus - His Birth, His death and His resurrection. Where I do not add any comments are the ones which I (currently) cannot fault, others I add comments where I may be unsure of the content. The next time you sing a hymn, carol or chorus, please do not be afraid to act appropriately if you disagree with its content!
