FIrst of all, thanks for a great resource, which my church has now been using for over 4 years. However, there is a recurring niggle, which a few folk have spotted (and blamed me for!) several times over the years, but on Easter Sunday it seems that everybody was more awake than usual...
We were singing 'Thine be the glory' - great old hymn, with a great tune that only Handel could have written, so it seems very wrong to be blatantly showing a message at the foot of the screen that credits the tune to the guy who happened to write the words.
Does that message have to say 'Words and music by...'? The complicated fix would be to separate 'Words by...' from 'Music by...', but that would then introduce the problem of having to change the credits if we decided to sing, for example, a traditional hymn to a modern tune. I really can't see why anything at all needs to be said about the source of the tune when it's only the words that are being shown. So all we really need is to remove the '...and music...', and the problem goes away. Is there a way I can do this, or does it need a tweak to the software?
Interestingly enough, I was speaking with a well-known modern hymnwriter recently - he writes words, but not tunes, and it grates on him to see himself being credited with all kinds of tunes that are nothing to do with him.
Thanks for all you've done for so many.
Keith
