The Venerable Donald Allister, Bishop of Peterborough has spoken out against the so-called hymn, 'Jerusalem'.GOOD! It is emphatically NOT Christian; the words are piffle; Blake was a loony and the excellent, rousing tune cannot compensate for the tripe contained within.
[No. Jesus as a boy did NOT visit Somerset with Joseph of Aramathea!]
Suggestion, Bish. There is no copyright issue here so why not expunge the trashy verses and do a rewrite?
