Re: OT: Opinions wanted: person of vocatives

When we sung the Paternoster, it was not in verse form, more 'Gregorian
chant' style. But it grew on you after a time. Certainly there are some
beautiful hymns about. My ex and I (both pagans) frequently sung hymns to
our baby daughter - I don't know where this idea of 'the Devil having all
the best tunes' came from. There's no contest, God wins hands down.
