You will notice that on some Sundays there is no hymn
number listed for the hymn we sing and only the text is
on the screen. There are a couple of different reasons
this occurs. (It is not a mistake in the bulletin!) When
nothing is listed where the hymn number usually goes,
it means that we are singing a different text than the
one in the hymnal. Nearly all of our text changes are
made because we choose to use the original text
setting, the one we all are most familiar with or have
memorized. It removes some of the awkwardness when
singing very familiar hymns. On different occasions, the
hymn text is on the screen, but the bulletin says Tune
No. 435 even though we are singing the text printed
in the hymnal. The reason is that we are singing a
different tune than the one printed with that text. At theName of Jesus (which we are singing today) is suchan example. Sometimes we wed a familiar tune ( Likea River Glorious ) to a less familiar text ( At the Nameof Jesus ). This practice enables us to broaden ourhymn base and become familiar with more hymns. For
those of you who read the notes as you sing, it can
be awkward when we are singing a different tune than
what is on the page! Hence, we list the Tune Number in
the bulletin. And of course, there are those times when
we simply learn both the tune and text of a new hymn.
