Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Service Book and Hymnal for Sunday Schools: Without the Music Schools which should be a mere mosaic of the words and phrases of the Prayer Book would exercise a similarly confusing influence over children´s memories, without at all quickening their affection for the Prayer Book itself. In selecting the hymns, regard has been had chiefly to the simplicity and purity of the language; and to its fitness to be sung. No attempt has been made to meet the taste supposed to inhere in a child´s mind for namby-pamby sentiment and jingling rhythm. The editor doubts whether, in point of fact, children of average intelligence have such a taste. If they have, there can be no doubt that the bad appetite ought to be checked rather than stimulated. The high authority of Mr. Patmore and of Mrs. Alexander may be cited in support of this view. In making acknowledgment of his indebtedness to friends for valuable aid, the editor would mention, first of all; Mr. I. N. Metcalf, the Choir-Master of All-Saints Church, to whose kind and painstaking oversight the credit of whatever is good in the musical portion of this book may be attributed.
