Some (especially the real snake-belly low church folk who pay attention to such
things <g>) would say the rest of the church slid down this slippery slope long
ago when they started using the Agnus Dei -- as it's addressed not to God but at
the elements on the Altar.
I realize it's just another musical interlude in some places, but it was
something of an issue in the debate about the 1928 BCP. And the compromise, IIRC
was "Here a hymn may be sung."
Cheers,
Jim Guthrie
