It is possible that LOTU, while not needing an Holy Book, could well need a body of music. As a lonely athiest I sometimes look back on my days as a believer in myths and the sense of community created by the singing of songs of faith. Almost all successful movements (Protest, Unionism, Islam, Christianity) have developed what amounts to a Hymnal. This helps in group bonding and personal belief reinforcement.
As a beginning allow me to present the first two verses of "Amazing Laws". Sung, as is the tradition amongst church music, to an older tune you would all recognise - even without the bagpipes ![]()
Amazing Laws, how neat they are
That shows the world to be!
We once served myths, but now we know
There're Laws that science found.
Old myths had taught me just to fear
Till Science showed me the way
How wondrous was my life
When first I learned to think.
