Individual responsibility

I love this quote from a fellow East, Tennessean:

"I have yet to see the first church that remained empty for long where each person entered heartily into the singing of hymns. In order to maintain this equality [between preaching and singing], every individual must be made to feel his responsibility in the singing part of the worship." - Charles Alexander
