It is one of those "new post-Vatican 2" Catholic hymns so despised by many, both Catholic and non-Catholic. Personally, I believe that most of the hymns in the Catholic hymnal "Glory and Praise", as well as many other "new hymns" are excellent prayers and prayer aids.

Sorry, but you can count me as one of those who, well despises is a little too strong a term--let's say finds inartistic, most of the post Vatican II hymns. "Be not Afraid" is one I do like. The new hymns, to me, are becoming almost like a screech to the ears now where the old words and phrases are changed to be pc. Some are just awful.

Well some of us grew up during Vatican 2
Though we still sign hymns like Panis Angelicus .. there are also a few new one that are enjoyable
