I was around 6 or 7 and When we went to Church, I thought my folks were genuises because they never needed to use the hymnals to sing,,,yet, they mysteriously seemed to know all the words to every hymn.
A childhood belief about hymns
others believed things like this
- I used to think that church songs were pop music. Well, we did sing them in church every week...— Roxy
- Remember the old Tubes song "White Punks on Dope". Thought they were singing "White Folks are Dumb"
— WailerMan - When he was a kid, my husband thought the hymn "bringing in the sheaves" was "bringing in the cheese."Anon
- My fiance was in church as a kid and he saw the Vicar of the church and asked his Mum if it was God.— Andys fiancee
- Did anyone else sing "Hark, the hairy angels sing"?— Jill
- My mum said that when I used to sing "noahs arc" at school I would sing "who built the arc, no one, no one"— Clare
