I've been in the Anglican Choir since 1999, and apart from singing over 600 hymns offhand, I can sing over 1000 different tunes offhand too.....this one no be child play....that you are a bishop doesn't give you the license to know more hymns than the veterans in the choir

I wonder why no-one remembered the man Charles Wesley who wrote most of the hymns we sing today....he is the brother of John Wesley who started Methodist church... To me Methodist is the church when we talk about hymns.

hian!
Bros hymns na hymns nah mostly written by onyibos many churches make use of hymn book. I was born into Methodist church and I know we sing hymns like six times every Sunday, when the ministers and choir members proceed in, before 1St , 2nd & 3rd bible readings, before main preaching, and the end of the service when the ministers and choir members match/proceed out.

I think the question should've been, how many times does your church sing hymns every Sunday. God bless the Body of Christ.

Anglicans and Methodists are more hymn oriented than other churches I know. The Baptists are a close second, followed by the Roman catholics.

I'm Anglican and I know not even marriage can take hymns away from my blood kiss

But then, I don't see what this topic aims to achieve. Who cares which church owns what, so long as the body of Christ is united and God is gloried, we remain one family in the faith.

Now go read your bibles and hear what St. Paul has to say about foolish arguments. Keep them far away from you.

Check the dating of the hymns..you see most predated the Reformation...that is the western schism which birthed protestantism from the Catholic Church. Most hymns are Catholic hymns...go to Catholic monasteries and hear gregorian chants...you wud wish never to leave. Most Anglican hymns are Catholic hymns co-opted into their common prayer. You know Anglican church broke fro Catholic Church...

About to say same.

Hymns are written by individuals to edify the Church.

It is the same hymns all churches sing, some churches e.g. Anglican, Baptist etc. are more hymn oriented than others just how some churches e.g. MFM, CAC are more prayer oriented.


Save for Celestial Church of Christ; ALL hymns are ABSOLUTELY different from other churches' hymns.
cool

I am catholic but i must confess the Anglicans and Baptists have the best hymns.
The standard hymn book is Sacred Songs and Solos and is a Baptist book

(Fun fact: Did you know that "Amazing Grace" was composed by a slave trader in Calabar? It is one of the most popular hymns in the world)
