No 'Yahweh' in songs, prayers at Catholic Masses, Vatican rulesThe change has been made from 'Yahweh' to a plethora of other things in some song books already, with most of the changes less than satisfying. If they need to make this change they should just throw those songs, no matter how lovely, right out, rather than despoil them with unrhythmic, non-rhyming, clutter. I cringe when I hear what they've done to some of the songs, even to make them more inclusive. Anyway, this change has been coming for some time. An observant Jew even spells the usual title for the Creator as G-d, if they spell it at all. Does this mean that the use of God is going to be out too? I wonder how many observant Jews attend Mass often enough to be offended? Oh, well...
