A childhood belief about hymns

Regarding the belief about the misheard lyric of the sung "Amen" in an Easter Mass, it reminded me of something more appropriate. I'm a BIG fan of the <i>Mass of Creation</i> (by Marty Haugen) setting, people. If the organ (I mean a BIG, ritzy pipe organ) blasts out that section of this Mass setting that follows after "Christ has died, Christ is risen..." part, you might be thinking (if you're scared of it):

<b>O-OR-GAN, O-OR-GAN, O-O-O-ORGAN!</b>

(I drew out the vowel to emphasize how the "Amen" part of the <i>Mass of Creation</i> goes.)
