Usage and role of "temperance" songs?

I've been studying the works of Fanny Crosby for several years.   I'm fascinated by the number of songs she wrote that were only published one or a few times and then mostly languish except here on Hymnary.org!   Over time, I've reset about 20 of Fanny's songs to modernize the lyrics and make them a bit more singable, or perhaps set to music for the first time (based on Don Hustad's "Fanny Crosby Speaks Again").   Recently I noticed that she wrote a bunch of lyrics that got published in hymnals that are labeled as "temperance", meaning they were part of the temperance/prohibition movement.

Many, perhaps most of the songs labeled "temperance" do not have a spiritual tone/message.  I'm curious about the usage of such songs.  Were they used in worship services or generally limited to gatherings to encourage temperance/abstinence?   Is that "documented" in books from the era or "hearsay history"?
