lutheranhymnsIs the alto part pretty boring?
Actually yeah, but who cares. This is a classic, in part because they have "alleluia" after literally every line. 16 in all if you're counting!
Who's counting?
Often my family (especially when we were kids)--since traditionally you don't sing "alleluia" during Lent, it comes back in a bunch of the Easter liturgy.
Are the lyrics that moving?
Not...really? It just feels like "oh yeah, it's a classic."
At some point I will list all the songs with basically indistinguishable titles, because there are a zillion. I just didn't want to burn that on something like this, and yet, here I am with this famous-ish song and I can't think of anything super unique to say about it. Oh well.
