He is risen indeed, alleluia!

Alleluia indeed! I was not yet twenty one at the time. My favourite hymn is Thine be the Glory, sung with great gusto!

A perfect celebration of the Eucharist, in accordance with the contemporary language of the Book of Common Worship and the dignity of the liturgy of the Church of England.

You are right, I have my copy of the Alternative Service Book from 1988.

Hi, is incense used a lot in Church of England cathedrals? I love the use of it, smell of wonderful, but in some Church of England churches it is never used. Indeed in the Church of Ireland it is forbidden. Thanks.
