This essay sets out to reflect on changes within the language of worship. It traces Jewish, Greek and Latin roots and makes a brief mention of Reformation heritage before addressing itself to the issues prominent around the time of the founding of the Church Service Society. It offers suggestions for current practice so that on the one hand an “arid intellectualism” may be avoided, and on the other hand “subjective sentimentalism”.

Dr Louden reports the history of the movement from the mid-nineteenth century which has set out to uphold a sense of order within public worship. The foundation and continuing history of the Society takes his attention, and a survey of the Society’s publications.
Short biographical notices by different authors are appended of three key figures in the early years of the Society – the Revd Robert Herbert Storey (1835-1907), the Revd George Campbell (1827-1904) and the Revd James Cameron Lees (1834-1913) (pp.18-27). Photographs are also within this volume, also of the Revd G W Sprott.
Most of Dr Davidson’s article is concerned with history and architecture, tracing the story of Kentigern and the building of the Cathedral and its furnishings. At the close, he argues the place of a cathedral or mother church within the modern Glasgow environment.
