#362: At the Lamb's High Feast We Sing
Was this in the predecessor main hymnal (the "green book" or Lutheran Book of Worship)?
Yeah, I think so. Twice even!
What do you mean twice?
Like in a bunch of copies at the church where I (mostly) grew up, I seem to remember a copy of this taped to the inside cover.
Why would they need another copy if it was already in the hymnal?
I don't know. I think it was labeled with verse breakdowns, because there are a lot of them. "1 unison, 2 men, 3 women, 4 choir in parts, 5 organ solo, skip 6, 7 and 8 unison" or something.
But did they do the same arrangement every year? Like for Easter or something?
I don't think so.
Weird.
Yeah.
Or you could just be making this up.
I wouldn't do that to you. Possible I misremembered though.
