Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Singers and Songs of the Church: Being the Biographical Sketches of the Hymn-Writers in All the Principal Collections; With Notes on Their Psalms and Hymns Encouraged by the rapid sale of the first edition of my work, ´Our Hymns: their Authors and Origin,´ and the favourable reception given to it, I have adopted the suggestion of some of my friendly critics, and have both emended the former material, and enlarged the plan of the work, so as to make it a Biographical Companion to all the principal Hymnals, and substantially a new work. The labour of including so many authors (more than five hundred), and the thousands of hymns in so many Collections, and the necessary research and correspondence involved, have been very great; but it is hoped that the result will be valued by the general reader, and especially by the large and increasing class who take delight in Hymns and Hymnology. Most people have their favourite hymns, and there are millions who from week to week use their Hymn Books in public worship, until they find that a thousand pleasing associations are clustering around the hymns they sing, and their familiar words are influencing their daily and most sacred feelings, and interweaving themselves in the very fabric of their spiritual nature. It is the object of this work to provide such information of the authors and origin of our hymns as will add to the pleasure and advantage of private devotion and public worship.
