It doesn't matter to me weather they are in a book or on a screen, though the songs with two parts might be hard to put on a screen.

Oh! Our church has a very young demographic but we do still sing old hymn. For a long time you could pretty much count on one of the four praise and worship songs being an old hymn but it is more sporadic now. What is cool is that the response to the old hymns is great from our younger crowd. Of course we only sing the really good old hymns so that helps!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
