Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Historical Companion to Hymns Ancient and Modern: Containing the Greek This volume is printed, because none like it has lately been published, and many persons wish to possess the very words of the ancient hymns which were sung by their forefathers in the early British, Scottish, Celtic, Saxon, and Norman Churches of these islands. Every member of the great English Church must be proud of his lineage, and look back with gratitude to God for the heritage bequeathed to him by eighteen Christian centuries, and for the treasures which his ancestors created for their own branch, or acquired from other branches of the Catholic Church. The present book gives the words of the hymns to which generation after generation of Englishmen have been accustomed in the constant worship of the Great Head of the Church. It contains also the modern foreign hymns which, composed in later times, have been translated and used by many congregations. Had the Compilers of Hymns Ancient and Modern issued a second edition of the Rev. L. Coutier Biggs´ work, the present Editor would not have attempted a task which others could have done much better.
