“I find rather that what most distinguishes a hymn from other kinds of poetry, including song lyrics, is the expectation that the speaker and the reader will collapse into each other -- that is, readers will read (including singing) rightly when they can voice the words as if they were their own.”

“Jonathan Edwards is sometimes criticized for having too dim a view of human nature, but it may be helpful to be reminded that his grandmother was an incorrigible profligate, his great-aunt committed infanticide, and his great-uncle was an ax-murderer.”
― George M. Marsden, Jonathan Edwards
