Excerpt from Book of Prayer and Praise for Congregational Worship In some instances a choice of prayers and chants is offered, to provide for differences of feeling with regard to the use of certain phrases. The attempt has been made to exclude as much as possible phrases significant of those dogmatic beliefs concerning which people are most apt to disagree, and to keep only the language of devotion.
