Helpful, thank you
What is the concern with the reproaches? I’m not familiar with them

They can be interpreted as being directed at us the listeners. But they can also be interpreted as speaking to Jewish people as all the imagery is from the Hebrew Scriptures and doesn’t reference the experience of those who actually were around Jesus during his life on earth.
For example:
“I led you out of Egypt, having drowned Pharaoh in the Red Sea:
and you have delivered me to the chief priests.”Who is being addressed here?

That’s interesting, because whenever I have sung the Reproaches I have always felt them as being expressions of personal repentance rather than accusations thrown at the listener.

I must admit I had always read the Reproaches as directed to the listener. That the Egypt from which we are delivered is the Egypt of the modern world, the slavery of ghastly jobs (I’ve had a few, in fact a lot) and the oppression of terrible political systems. But I come from a totally different thought world to that of most people today, and I absolutely see they wouldn’t commonly be read that way.
But I think it would benefit everyone to find a way of expressing BOTH what faith can offer in terms of freedom AND the mess we do make of the world, and sitting with that tension.
And I think the church as a whole urgently needs to find a compelling and deep reaching way of doing both.-
You might be interested that we’re looking at Isaiah 59 as a helpful text for this year, given the current ways of the world.

I’m of much the same mind. (A mind that is still blown away when I hear them sung)

Six reasons why [some] cathedrals are doing well
The attendance statistics for Cathedrals in England have been published in the last 24 hours. As has been the case in recent years these are quite perky.
