What language is most appropriate for worship? Should it lean
toward the colloquial, perhaps targeting those attending a worship
service for the first time? Or should it be a language with deeper
roots, the language of a community that, for the most part, already
loves the God to whom worship is offered?
Ronald Byars argues that the communal speech that truly honors
God is, in fact, biblical language, which encompasses a vast range
of forms ? poetry and prose, song and proverb, parable and
narrative. Byars explains how biblical language becomes liturgical
language that pushes us beyond what we already think we know,
requiring us to think anew about death and resurrection, beginnings
and endings, and the life of faith. What Language Shall I Borrow?
is an instructive, eloquent reminder not to retreat from biblical
language and images but to fully embrace them in our worship
today.
