Music as speech -Reply

[Daniel Conkle]

On the issue of textual fidelity and singing the words as written,
the official hymnals of various Protestant denominations--sometimes
with considerable controversy--have in fact revised the words of
various hymns; in the last decade or two, the most significant
revisions have been to move toward gender-neutral language.
