Hymnal

Hymnal or hymnary or hymnbook is a collection of hymns, i.e. religious songs, usually in the form of a book. The earliest hand-written hymnals are from the Middle Ages in the context of European Christianity, although individual hymns such as the Te Deum go back much further. The Protestant Reformation in the 16th century, together with the growing popularity of moveable type, quickly made hymnals a standard feature of Christian worship in all major denominations of Western and Central Europe. The first hymnal of the Reformation was Achtliederbuch, followed by the Erfurt Enchiridion. An important hymnal of the 17th century was Praxis pietatis melica.

    HOW MANY LIES ?

    by: Spandau Ballet

    Once there were times,
    Once there were reasons filled with rhymes,
    Everything shared, everything told
    You keep me so warm,
    Protect me from all those mighty storms
    And dreams seem so old
    So look at us now, just look at us now,
    With our hands on our hearts
    And lines on our brow
    How many lies must we tell?
    How many lies must we see?
    How many times must we say, it's for the best?
    And leave truth as the casualty?
    Do you read through the lines,
    Or believe the TV and the Times?
    Where can we find more ways to see?
    You strain on the truth,
    And make believe all when you cry wolf,
    And the lies you're giving me
    So look at us now, just look at us now,
    With our hands on our hearts
    And lines on our brow
    How many lies must we tell?
    How many lies must we see?
    How many times must we say, it's for the best?
    And leave truth as the casualty?
    Oh, well the truth is hard,
    So when they write the book,
    Fiction's what you wanna be
    Well, it's your freedom of choice,
    But you know that lies, are the cancer of democracy
    You've painted your face,
    And now you've tainted your words
    And now you're ready and armed with love
    Well if you're head is steady,
    And your soul is ready,
    We're going up above
    So whatever you wanna be,
    Just come on along with me,
    If there's truth in our hearts,
    Maybe we can break free
    How many lies must we tell?
    How many lies must we see?
    How many times must we say, it's for the best?
    And leave truth as the casualty?
    How many lies must we tell?
    How many lies must we see?
    How many times must we say, it's for the best?
    And leave truth as the casualty?
    How many times must we say,it's for the best?
    And leave nothing, yeah
