Sing a New Church GAB 450

I have never used this song at mass but I understand it is rightly popular in the US. It has a text by the wonderful Sister Delores Duffner that arouses fury in certain circles. Reviewing the text, I can’t see what they are so upset about. What’s wrong with diversity? What’s wrong with the Gifts of the Spirit? She even set it to good old NETTLETON so they can’t get upset about modern music. I’m not going to link the vitriol but it also seems part of an anti-OCP movement that might be an issue in the US but not elsewhere. Since the Body of Christ resides in the gathered assembly (and elsewhere of course) why not sing a new Church.

The text is here. OCP sell it here.
