Description
Excerpt from The Service-Hymnal: With an Introductory Service
The Service Hymnal was prepared to meet the needs of The Service Manual, and is designed for use in the synagogue, the religious school and the home.
It contains the music of the responses and hymns of the Sabbath and Holy-Day Services, and a selection of hymns for special devotions and national festivals.
Traditional melodies have been preserved wherever possible, and the musical settings of the responses have been taken mainly from Jewish sources. The Psalms, the fountain-head of religious fervor and inspiration, have been especially drawn upon for texts of the hymns, and their metrical form is, to a large extent, the paraphrase of classical writers. A conscientious effort has been made to select tunes and texts that are easily learned, and that, at the same time, deepen devotional spirit and lend greater beauty to the service.
The Introductory Service is designed for special devotions, and for the religious exercises of the Sabbath School.
